Our son started at MSA in the 4th grade and is currently a sophomore (24/25 academic year) and he is thriving! He love's the campus, the athletics and other extra curricular after school activities MSA offers and they teach in way that allows our son who has sever ADHD to flourish academically and with the smaller class sizes he thrives socially as well
