—About—

Manzanita Elementary School

Manzanita Elementary purpose is to provide a rigorous core academic program based upon the California state standards and district standards. In addition, our students’ educational experiences will be enriched by both technology and the fine arts. Their intellectual, physical, social, and emotional development will reflect a well-rounded education of the 21st century.

The curriculum at the Manzanita Elementary School has been developed to provide expanded opportunities for students, where a differentiated curriculum will specifically meet the needs of TK-6th graders. In addition, all students at Manzanita have access to the computer lab, giving them an earlier opportunity to begin to develop technology skills.
