GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I love that Manatee is a K-8 for convenience of keeping my kids together longer and less transitions to other schools. I like that it has an elementary side and a middle school side with little crossover especially with younger kids. The administration is very good at getting back with parents to address concerns. My kids are challenged and supported by loving/caring staff.
