Principal's Message
Please accept my warmest welcome to Mater Academy Charter Middle/High and Performing Arts and Entertainment Academy. Functioning in a rich diverse South Florida community, Mater Academy strives to provide a rigorous and relevant curriculum in a nurturing environment.
I am often asked what makes Mater Academy so special. My answer is quite simple - our community. The community here at Mater provides a wonderful place where youth and experience come together for the singular purpose of learning.
Visualize:
- Teachers who really care
- Students engaged in the learning process
- Stimulating discussions
- A safe environment
- Advanced academics
- A college preparatory curriculum
Imagine:
- Starring in a school play
- Dancing across a large stage
- Mastering a foreign language
- Playing an interscholastic sport
- Broadcasting on the school news
- Solving complicated math problems
- Doing math on a computer
- Researching current issues on the Web
- Exploring the mysteries of science
- Enrolling in college courses while still in high school
These are the kinds of experiences available to students at Mater Academy.
Education is a partnership that includes you, your children, and our staff. We will provide outstanding teachers, a caring and supportive staff, and a secure and stimulating learning environment for your children. As our partners, we need you to instill in your children the value of education.
Get involved! Time invested with your child(ren) at home and at school pays off in huge dividends. The more you participate, the more you and your child will benefit from school.
I am privileged to be the principal of the community at Mater and to be able to daily observe the dynamic interaction of its members. At Mater, we believe the education we offer is the foundation upon which students may build their dreams.
Know that Mater Academy is your school. I want you to feel that you are a welcome and integral part of this social learning community.
Sincerely,
