Kenneth E. Adum K-8 Magnet School

  • A new magnet school will replace the existing Manhattan Center offices at 4210 W. Bay Villa Ave. in Tampa. The school is scheduled to open in August 2024.

    The district received a special use permit in March 2022 through the City of Tampa to construct the school. The school will have a 1,620-student capacity and will include prekindergarten through eighth grades.

    A neighborhood meeting was held Aug. 5, 2021, at the current Manhattan Center building to discuss the project with the community and gather feedback. The presentation from the meeting can be viewed below or downloaded here.
