This is a great school. My daughter attended MaST from grades 7 through 12. She was very well prepared for college and is holding down close to a 4.0 GPA. In addition to general academics, the school also provides courses in electronic media and computer studies/certifications. The astronomy tower/telescope is awesome. The new building wing that recently opened will have an e-book lending library and individual study stations. Admission is via application and an annual open lottery system.
The BEST school in the state of Pennsylvania! I have two children attending MaST and they (and I) could not be happier!
Being a student at this school for ten years, I believe this school is one of the best schools in the country if not the best!
MaST provides an excellent learning environment for my children. Every teacher is dedicated to their students' success. Our family has been a part of the MaST family for well over 10 years now & we couldn't be happier!
We have been with this school for the last 7 years, with the luck of the lottery and we could not be happier with this school!
A very tightly woven net of learning. The teachers pay very close attention to their students because there are only about 20 students per class. I am an alumni from the school, and though I may not be a parent yet, I will definitely send my children here (if I still live in Philadelphia that is)
the kids like going to school and the parents know it is a great place for their kids to learn and grow. Its great to work at MaST too
Just finished K-8th. Now moving into HS. So far really great!!! Extra-cirriculars only so/so, but that's to be expected in a Charter program. For HS athletics..if Mast dosen't offer what you're looking for your child can play for your local public HS. Academics have been fairly strong. I am blessed with a good student, but ALL of the teachers are caring! If you get in...STAY. It's top notch! Will post again in Jr. year ;)
This is where parents want to send their children to obtain the education they want their children to have. This school will enable you child to learn and grow all while utilizing the technology that is available to them. You will not be disappointed. Friendliness, virtue and guidance is abundant here.
MAST has is giving my Grandchildren a wonderful education. They have wonderful extra curriclum activities and there is a mix of multi-cultural students who get along. Very well. I love their drama and music departments. Three of my Grandchildren attend this school. One will graduate in June, 2010. I am very proud of them and this school.
