#3 Best Charter High Schools in Portland Area
Alum: I loved how welcoming my high school was. We had a big LGBTQ+ population and students at MAA were very welcoming of each others differences. Our teachers kept us focused, but they allowed us enough autonomy to choose how we decided to complete our projects and they let us work in groups. Which helped to build community among us, as peers. At MAA, we were given a lot of projects and work to do. At the time, I found this to be a difficult transition since in middle school there is not nearly as much work that we are tasked to do. However, as a first year college student, I can proudly say that these projects made me a better more focused student. And, this atmosphere really prepared me the work that I do in college. In addition to this, MAA works so well because we are a smaller community of students in the high school. Therefore, we have less students in each class. Which is helpful because it created a family like community!
