MANTECA – Since November, Manteca Unified, the third largest public school district in San Joaquin County, has enacted a K-12 hybrid model for on-campus, in-person instruction.

All students distance-learn on Wednesdays when schools are cleaned and sanitized. Parents can opt for the district’s online academy or independent study
