MACA has been a great disappointment !They unfortunately fail to uphold the values they proclaim. If choosing to have a family member attend. Be actively present .

We have been a part of this school community for 6 years, my child's entire elm schooling. We LOVE everything about MACA - the caring and tight knit parental community, the high, but appropriate standards from the teachers and the wholesome and consistent Godly influence provided. My husband is a 17-year public school educator in the same county and there is just simply no comparison, hands down MACA is superior. I can't recommend MACA enough.

This was a terrible school for our child. There is a serious bullying problem throughout the school that is not being properly addressed. There is rampant, obvious favoritism towards students who are related to staff members. Serious behaviors are allowed to continue without appropriate consequences...
