Magnolia science academy 2 has a small campus and not many resources but it tries to their best to make each student feel safe and care for. The teachers are also very helpful and care about the students.

Since I've come to this school, I have experienced so many great things that they definitely outweigh the bad. The best being that the teachers and staff are more than welcoming and kind. They treat each student with care and make sure that we get the material properly. The community is also amazing, and I have made so many friends that they make me look forward to school instead of dreading it. My experience at MSA2 has been incredible, despite what other people said about it.

It was okay at best. It didn't give the standard high school experiences like big dances or events at the time I attended. I would say the best and worst parts would be certain teachers overall. A select few were very enjoyable and good teachers, while others weren't. The size of the overall school was pretty small, and I'd say that was a pro and a con in itself.

Would not recommend school, horrible courses provided and very little opportunities provided to open up your future. Students basically run the whole school and teachers be leaving left and right due to how bad MSA has recently become. And it's a hit or miss that rumors will be spread about you. Ove...
