★Julie CamdenThis school deserves zero starts. The school claims it’ll notify you of an incident immediately yet you find out two days later at the soonest. They lose teachers and staff left and right. They don’t return calls or emails regularly. They withhold transcripts improperly. They try to steal $5000 and you have to sue for fraud to get it back. I could go on and on such as a recent alcohol incident there where students were over the legal limit.
★★★★★Tammy EspinoSuch an amazing place! My Grandpa taught here in the 1940s to early 1950s. I had seen pictures over the years and was so excited that we would be in the area and could stop by. We were so impressed with the staff and students we met. The campus has an old world charm with modern amenities.
★★★★★Kalith SmithI wanted to take a moment and note an experience with MMA cadets today on a flight from St. Louis to DFW. I have found that true character is shown when we think no one is watching. These young men were respectful, kind and able to have a conversation with a Gen X’er with ease. Kudos to their families and to MMA. They are being well prepared for a bright future!
★★★★★Jaymie L. MitchellMy cadet decided he wanted to attend MMA in 8th grade because he wants to be an officer in the U.S. Army. The day he arrived at MMA he embraced the life of a Cadet and has since excelled in his leadership abilities, education, organization, relationships, physical fitness and is extremely goal driven. This can only be attributed to the environment and structure at MMA. He has said "I know now that my dreams are possible!" MMA makes dreams happen. Best decision ever made!
★★★★★Lynne LowderI'm continually impressed with this school. My son feels very safe and cared about at this school. The communication from Administration is excellent. The offerings, in terms of academics, sports and off-campus excursions, are top notch and cadets can get dual credit with a local college. The galas and dances are wonderful (food, drinks, decor, entertainment, auction items). The men are good role models for the young, male cadets and I appreciate them encouraging my son in his leadership abilities. Highly recommend this environment for a young man to thrive!
