MANOR, Texas — A local school district is growing -- and getting some recognition in the process.
Manor's New Tech Middle School received top honors from the state school board and school administrators' associations for the planning and design of the campus.
About 700 students, grades six through eight, attend the school.
It was built around project-based learning and allows kids to pick the type of space, furniture and tools that suit their individual learning styles.
Manor ISD is going through rapid expansion and now has about 9,000 students in the district.
