History

Campus activities and events

Each year M.A.C. organizes many on-campus activities and events which are designed to serve as community building activities and as means of further communication between students, parents and teachers in a relaxed and supportive environment within the campus grounds. We view participation in extra-curricular activities and events as an important component of communication and relationship building. Here is a list of some of our on-campus activities and events:

Academics


Students are obliged to take all classes until senior year, when they're allowed to pick or drop subjects based on their aimed-for faculty. Mentors from MIU have individual parents' meeting in order to guide the student and the parent into this process.

A new mandatory course, Personal, Social and Health Education, has been added. [6] This program, also referred to as the Building Pioneers Program, works to nurture the students minds and develop their social skills. [6]

Student Support Services Center

This Learning Support Center (LSC) at MAC is responsible for receiving inquiries and special requests directly from parents. · [7] Working with the school's counselor, administration team, and teachers, it makes sure to take corrective actions according to school regulations and policies.· [7]

Also, after school tutoring and lunch tutoring is available for students to sign up for. Some students may be put under probation, which means they'll spend extra time with the teacher during free times in order to catch up. [8]

An individual education plan (IEP) is developed for each of these students, indicating specific goals and objectives required to develop the student's individualized academic skills.· [7]

Letters of concern are sent at the end of every semester, warning the parents of students at risk. Detention is also given for misconduct.
