would not reccomend putting your child in this school district AT ALL. they do not care about the students mental health, your kid will get bullied and they do not do anything. and from experience the teaching system is slow, your child won’t get a good education here. It’s confusing to me as to how...

Male teachers are too concerned with sports, female teachers too concerned with liberal feminaziism. Teach STEM and intro to arts/humanities and leave your footballs and politics at home please - the students will be much more productive citizens and professionals.

My daughter has Been enrolled in MASD for 9 years. She is gifted and the program has worked very well for her. She has a core group of teachers that to this day still follow her success.
