Student Success

We all play a role in the success of our students
Student success is more than standardized test scores. It is an education experience that is respectful, honest, forthright, comprehensive, encouraging, and bully-free.
Students thrive when they can interact with educators and peers in a conflict-free environment where enthusiasm, self-awareness, and justice lay the groundwork for a positive learning experience. As educators, our job is to instill in our students the self-confidence and enthusiasm for learning that will enable them to achieve not only their academic goals, but also their life dreams.

Schools Students Deserve

Students deserve incredible settings where they can develop their love of learning and achieve to their highest potential in life. At MAE we are determined to make sure our public schools are these incredible settings.
