Manteca High School is a public, co-educational secondary school in Manteca, California, United States that was established on May 21, 1920. It is the oldest school within Manteca Unified School District.[3] Although originally built with a tower, it was torn down because the structure failed to meet earthquake regulations.

Manteca High is mainly known for the success in its football program.

Additionally, Manteca has won a total of 15 Sac-Joaquin Section Team Championships (6 since 2013) and 32 Individual Sac-Joaquin Section Championships in the sports of wrestling, basketball, track & field, golf, tennis and swimming.

The girls soccer team won its first ever section championship in 2016 as well, followed by a girls tennis section title the same year.
