Welcome to Manitou Springs School District

Manitou Springs School District 14 serves approximately 1400 students from Preschool to 12th Grade who reside in the communities of Manitou Springs, Cascade, Green Mountain Falls, Chipita Park, Crystal Park, and Cedar Heights. We serve over 500 “choice” students who come to our district from other locations in El Paso and Teller Counties.

We offer a “small town” educational environment, and we are driven by our core values of Relationships, Deep Learning, and Opportunity as we serve our children and our communities.


AP Scholars Video

 We are thrilled to announce that 17 exceptional Manitou Springs High School students were given honors in the Advanced Placement Program. Several students were granted AP Scholar, AP Scholar with Honor, or AP Scholar with Distinction.

Amanda Kerrigan's Advanced Placement Literature and Composition, Ben Mack’s Advanced Placement Biology, Andrew Slama's Advanced Placement Physics, and Steve Blocher's Advanced Placement Computer Science classes earned a score of 3 or higher on their exam last spring. Students earning a 3, or higher, are eligible for college credit. Congratulations to these students and their teachers for their well-deserved recognition!

“Manitou Springs School District 14 was one of only two districts to have met and exceeded 2019 test scores in both math and English, according to CDE data.
