Overall, most of the teachers will try to connect with students to try and aid them better. All staff and personnel are kind and caring and will help you if you need it. They offer various of help programs such as office hours or setting a time with you that works for both you and the teacher.

The school Math, Engineering, Science and Academy Charter High School allowed me to be myself while at the same time coming to terms with myself as an academic student. At MESA I was able to rise from a 2.7 average GPA to a 3.6 GPA and end the year off strong with a 3.9 GPA.
