The student also has the opportunity to choose several courses from Fine Arts that will count as an English credit. Students at Manzano are required to have an English credit every year, so the variety of courses make it a lot easier on the student. English has become so popular, in its many various forms, that many kids are voluntarily taking two and three English courses.
