Manhattan 7-8 is a Title I public middle school that is part of the Manhattan School school district, located in Manhattan, MT with about 123 students offering grade levels from 7th Grade to 8th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families.
