Manor Independent School District has announced plans to introduce Manor Excel Virtual Academy, a new virtual learning program for high school students. The academy is set to begin in the 2026–2027 academic year and will be connected to the district’s existing Manor Excel Academy.

According to the district, the new program aims to offer more flexibility for students while maintaining established academic standards and support systems. “Manor Excel Virtual Academy will offer high school courses and will be connected to the district’s existing Manor Excel Academy. The program is designed to provide additional flexibility while maintaining the academic expectations and support families expect from Manor ISD.”

Further information about eligibility, course offerings, and application procedures will be provided in the coming months. Families and community members are encouraged by the district to stay informed through its website and social media channels.

Manor Independent School District currently serves more than 10,000 students across 15 campuses in Texas. The district operates eight elementary schools, three middle schools, one PreK-8 campus, three high schools, and one alternative learning campus according to its official website. It provides a range of programs including dual language education, career certifications, and pathways toward associate degrees. The district also supports student achievement in academics, arts—having been recognized as a District of Distinction in visual arts by the Texas Art Education Association—and encourages community involvement through student-led initiatives focused on positive contributions (source).

The launch of Manor Excel Virtual Academy reflects Manor ISD’s ongoing focus on providing equitable and high-quality education that supports all aspects of student development (source). Students have also had opportunities to pursue college-level athletics with annual signing events organized by the district (source).
