Dear M. Mantha. How do we begin to thank you for the great school experience Nicholas has had at MCA these past two year? Thank you for encouraging Nicholas to be the best that he can be. We have seen him gain confidence in his abilities, realize that he can achieve things that he didn’t think he could (last year’s bike trip!), all while having fun at school. Not once did he say he did not want to go to school! His study skills, time management, and independence in completing his homework have prepared him well for High School! We will all miss MCA. Thank you so much!”
