All of the teachers at MPFA are loving and caring and have only one thing in mind- the well-being of the students and families. The school has rigorous standards and outperforms the local district nearly every year. Students wear uniforms and have over an hour of soccer/martial arts/tennis EVERY DAY!
My kids love this school and love the teachers.
