Students were taught in a one-room schoolhouse by teacher Benjamin Bollinger, with most students only completing a few grades at the little elementary school. Then, on May 21, 1926, Manila graduated its first class of five seniors.[2]Current history[edit]In 1966 the Brinkley School District of Mississippi County merged into the Manila School District.[3]The Etowah School District consolidated into the Manila district on July 1, 1986.[4]  The board of education of the Etowah district had asked for the merger. Because some people in Etowah wanted to consolidate into the Lepanto School District of Lepanto, a lawsuit was filed to stop the merger, but the Circuit Court of Mississippi County upheld the merger to the Manila district.[5]Manila School District and each of its three schools are accredited by the Arkansas Department of Education (ADE) and has been accredited by AdvancED (formerly North Central Association) since 1966.[6]The Manila School District is one of 35 school districts listed as “Achieving” (the highest rating) by the Arkansas Department of Education in support of Adequate Yearly Progress and Augmented Benchmark Examinations.[7]Manila High School is nationally recognized as a bronze medalist in the Best High Schools Report developed by U.S. News & World Report.[8]Schools[edit]Manila High School, serving grades 9 through 12.Manila Middle School, serving grades 5 through 8.Manila Elementary School, serving prekindergarten through grade 4.See also[edit]References[edit]^ a b c d e f “Search for Public School Districts \u2013 District Detail for Manila School District”.
