I was going through the classes I've had as a High School student now that I'm on the brink of graduating, and I stumbled upon my grades for his Spanish Class. I had him freshman year during covid and I remembered how amazing his class was in the midst of a horrible year. He was the highlight of my freshman year as a helpful, understanding, and funny teacher.

I remember he would start the day with "Buenos Dias Chicos!" and it would always brighten up my day. I could connect with him as a Spanish speaker and we would talk about subjects deeper than Spanish like world events. I remember him always saying "Oh Chetos" when there was a problem; it stuck with me because I found it so funny. During the Zoom meetings, I always liked staying a few minutes after to just talk, he was always a great listener. I told him my goals, my problems, my ideas and he was always there to hear it. He was more than a Spanish teacher to me, he was a friend.

Hearing about this now while trying to look for him really saddens me as I was planning on telling him how much I appreciated him as my teacher during those difficult times.  I sincerely hope he understood the profound impact he's had on my life and how much he's meant to me. I will miss you, Profe Arcos. My heart goes out to his family and I extend my deepest condolences.

“Arcosmedes” was what I called him when I first met him as a Freshmen student/athlete. I thought it was ironic that the name I gave him came from the mathematician Archimedes because Manny struggled in math and worked very hard often giving up his lunch to get tutoring in the subject. I remember his humility and hard work ethic. I enjoyed mentoring him even after he graduated from high school all the way up until his first teaching job at Eleanor Roosevelt High School. This has impacted me greatly and I will miss him dearly.

One of our many adventures. You will forever be in my heart my best friend.

I would always like to be around you because you were just so funny all of our school bus stories we would laugh till we almost pee 

Never a boring time when I was around you my good friend I cannot believe this is real pero siempre te voy a tener en mi corazón por ser tan bonita persona con todos que descanses en paz y no es un adiós es un hasta luego te quiero amigo mío 

Jaja 🤣 I remember you did not want to take this picture because you were scared that my boyfriend now husband was going to get mad and kick your butt lol 😂 this was his Omg face I’m going to be in trouble 

Omg!!! Do not get me started with this picture, the day you spend the night at Jennifer house because we were playing lotería with drinks and you could not drive so we all spend the night 

When you would invite me to go and tutor and we would just mess around, since then you knew that you loved teaching 

Every encounter with you was just laughs I will forever have you in my heart my good friend 

He was a kind soul, I'm happy that I had the Chance to camp with him and share beautiful memories with him and his family. 

Mi  más sentido pésame a la familia ARCOS AMARO por esta gran pérdida que Dios les dé fortaleza 🙏 Descanse en paz Manuel ARCOS AMARO que Dios lo tenga en su gloria 🙏 😢 

Arcos was the most amazing teacher I've ever had. I had him for the 4th period in the 2021-2022 school year. He was always open for his students to talk to him about anything. He actually made learning fun and really cared about the well-being of his students. In his Spanish class I would always be freaking out about math or biology and he always tried to help me the best I could and tried to get me to worry less about it than I was. Out of all my teachers, he was the best and he was also an amazing person outside of his profession. He will be missed dearly. 

Sir Arcos was the best Spanish teacher. I had him 9th grade year from 2019-2020. It was a blessing having him I was always so excited to go to that class every Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday I had him 6th period and that’s where I met one of my best friends heavin. I remember we would play a fly swatter game to learn vocabulary and how fun it was and if you didn’t understand he would tell you that you’re doing amazing and keep on trying. We would also act out the sport/sports he would say in Spanish which was also sooo much fun. He would get so frustrated with us at times but couldn’t stay mad at us instead he would start laughing with us.  Sir Arcos brought so much joy to the class and any student who had him will say he was the best teacher a student could ever have. I miss that class everyday and would do anything just to spend one more day in that class. I will make you proud Sir Arcos. May you rest in peace ❤️🕊️. 

Sir Arcos was the best Spanish teacher I had 9th grade year.  It was truly a blessing to have had him my freshman year. I was always excited to go to his classroom especially because it was my 6th period it always ended my days good. He would get so annoyed with us sometimes but he would just laugh at the end because he knew we were good students. We played a game with a fly swatter smacking the white board to learn our Spanish vocabulary! He just made the class really special. I actually wanted to go to class because of him and what he brought to his classes. You were the best teacher a student could ask for. Do anything to go back to 9th grade just for his class. I'm a senior now... I'ma make you proud sir Arcos. Rest in peace 🕊️

Manuel Arcos was my daughter’s favorite teacher. He was nice, kind, and engaging. I offer my deep condolences to his family. May you rest in peace.
