How does this school get a B in diversity?! This is not objectively possible-it is a highly diverse school.
Teachers are amazing-they all clearly want to be there and are enthusiastic about what they teach. They are happy at MAST. Their enthusiasm spills over to the students who then want to learn. Kids are friendly and welcoming.
It’s an A+ school. Sure everyone has an individual experience (same is true at every school) but this is objectively an A+ school. The grade on niche is only reflective of the number of parents who choose to comment and review the school, this is by no means any objective measure of the school.

The teachers in the school are amazing! I can't stress this enough! They are so interactive and often teaches in ways the students love! They build bonds with their students which makes the learning process more fun! Administration will try their very hardest to help you succeed and the security guards are the sweetest but not too sweet. The perfect balance. The school is right across the street from the beach so while in class you have a beautiful view of the ocean. The classrooms are cold, the hallways are clean, the teachers are creative and amazing, with an amazing view, what isn't there to like about Mast Academy.
To be completely honest I have mixed opinions on my school. Sure it is my home, I have plenty of friends and teachers that have both inspired me and changed the way I think. But there are also a lot of downsides. People can come and go without much questioning (this brings concerns for safety) as long as you drive in and say you’ll pick someone up they’ll let you in. Furthermore, there is a wide variety of classes offered which makes me ecstatic, plenty of AP and AS classes give people the chance to move forward. So yes you can advance in MAST and take anything from advanced art to science. So many interesting classes but sadly, I’d say we’re understaffed. A lot of teachers are great! But some are unenthusiastic or not qualified for their job. You can’t put a knitting teacher to teach math… Seriously it does not go well. Regardless, my experience at MAST has been decent. Administration has gotten a bit better, I still wish they’d fix the pool! I do waterpolo and it never got fixed..
