Memphis Academy of Science Engineering Middle/High School Reviews

I came to the school my ninth grade year. It was a big shift from where I was previously going, Memphis Catholic Middle and High School. The dialect was different, the engagement was different, and the environment as a whole was truly different. I left my other school to gain my own identity, and that is exactly what happened. This school ensures the opportunity for students to grow in who they are while learning to cope with others of different backgrounds. When I say everyone is treated exactly the same, that is the most literal yet general statement I can make. No matter your status in your class or your development throughout the year, everyone is treated the same. That is one of the attributes that drew me closer to the school. It gives each student a sense of humbleness. Although MASE is STEM based, each and every staff member supports students yearn to venture into different fields of study as they leave.

While attending Memphis Academy of Science and Engineering, I learned a galore of information about the fields pertaining to the STEM careers. I was intrigued by the modest amount of women pursuing careers in the STEM field. Women are the minority in this field dominated by men, moreover, black women are close to nonexistent in the STEM field. The percentage of black women in the field implored me to find out more about the STEM career field. Most women are not taken seriously that pursue a career in this field. They are outnumbered by thousands of white men.
My 3 years attending there were very interesting . I met great friends , I was very cordial with the teachers because they were so cool and I learned more than I ever did at any other school . The thing that I wish would change is the Uniform because being forced to wear a blazer while it was blazing outside was terrible and uncomfortable. Other than that , M.A.S.E. is a really good school .
