School Overview

Manor New Tech Middle School (MNTMS), located in Manor, Texas, is a specialized campus within the Manor Independent School District that distinguishes itself through a rigorous commitment to Project-Based Learning (PBL). Unlike traditional middle schools, MNTMS integrates technology and collaborative inquiry into the core of its curriculum. Students engage in real-world, interdisciplinary projects that encourage critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills, preparing them for the demands of the 21st-century workforce and post-secondary education.

The school places a strong emphasis on fostering a "culture of thinking" and a supportive community, often referred to by the campus as a "family." By utilizing a 1:1 technology model, MNTMS ensures that students are not only tech-literate but also adept at using digital tools for academic innovation.
