at MPA I think that the academics are good and they have a lot of good club opportunities but sports are definitely not a focus at MPA.

My time at Mounds Park Academy has been life-changing in many ways. While it is by no means a perfect school (no school is), it's care for rigorous academics and caring teachers makes it stand out amongst the rest.

My experience with MPA has been fantastic. I have found it to be a warm, welcoming place where curiosity is cultivated and students naturally reach for excellence. The faculty, staff, and school leaders are incredibly supportive of the students, their families, and of each other. The result is a strong community unlike any other. This school has a unique approach that you won't find in other schools in the Twin Cities and the success of the students is evidence of that.

After 13 years at MPA, I am so proud of who our son has become thanks to his experience there. He’s confident, bright, well-spoken, connected, and, most importantly, kind and humble. Knowing that he spent more waking hours at school than he did at home, I know this is because of MPA. Now at college,...
