Thank you, MCA. My son attended MCA for 3 years, through the end of 5th grade, at which time we moved out of state. He is now mid-way through his first term, as a 6th grade middle-schooler, at a highly competitive private school for gifted and advanced learners. He is earning straight As, completely on his own, and showing remarkable independence and discipline. He has even received commendations from the teachers on unprompted efforts to help not only the students, but the teachers - with keeping the classroom tidy. I am blown away. Without doubt I credit this to his upbringing to the warm, caring, nurturing and phenomenal environment he experienced at MCA. Thank you.

I would highly recommend MCA Academy, to any parent that believes that their child would thrive in a small and nurturing environment with amazing teachers who greatly enjoy teaching. My daughter came to MCA from a private school, where she attended for 7 years, the school was fantastic, however, her needs were not being met due to the size of classes,and perhaps the ,teachers speeding through a subject and the material was not fully taught where all the children grasped the material. Her self-confidence and self-esteem took a toll, she was not encouraging to do her best. My husband and I were a bit hesitant when we enrolled our daughter there for 8th grade, it was a challenging transition. In a few months, I was completely surprised by my daughter's enthusiasm of loving to learn, she was a different child. I can honestly say that the teachers are amazing, and fully enjoy watching the children learn and thrive. My daughter was now going to enter high school, we considered switching school.s for her to attend a larger school, we asked our daughter if she was interested in changing to a larger school. She said that she absolutely loved her teachers at MCA, and felt that the teachers cared about her success. To my family this is priceless.
