School Reviews
2 2/26/2016
The teachers are super incompetent. They won't teach but give test all the time. 7th grade teachers are a fairly good group, but eight grade is awful. MAMS focuses too much on athletics and not academics. Most students are rude and inconsiderate. I have been run over and pushed many times while attending this school. Fights break out all the time. There is a nice technology aspect in that they have some nice computers and things but other things are just plain old and outdated.
