The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

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.
I am a parent of two MSA2 students and I am very grateful to this school because I have seen the academic improvement in my seventh and ninth graders, they are happy to belong to a community school and in my 2 year experience at MSA2. I am very satisfied with the open and friendly communication with...
To the people thinking they should attend MSA2 however, it was a nice experience in making friends. Teachers are nice. BUT! Not all the teacher were educating students I remember in 8th grade my math teacher barely taught us he said to look up the answer behind the math book, however, the sports are...
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...
