Open Quote Overall it is a very good school. The only thing that really bothers me is that even though it is a performing arts school it is very limited on sports. It would be nice if it were bigger had a variety of afterschool activities that the students could partake in besides their art. Close Quote

Open Quote The new Homestead MAC is horrible. Stay away from it they shouldn't have been allowed to become a charter because the school is very poorly run. It is not what they promised us when we originally signed up. Close Quote

Open Quote I can honestly say bringing my child to MAC was the best choice I could have ever made. The school never ceases to impress me and my child would always come home sharing more stories of the school. Close Quote

Open Quote Overall, I have to say this school is amazing. The kids here are so welcoming to the upcoming new students, and the academics are challenging enough for all the grades. The teachers are committed to the students and they are so expressive when it comes to the arts.
I am so glad i brought my child here.
thank you Mac, GO MOORAYS! Close Quote

Open Quote My child has been attending for two years. Initially the quality of the teachers seemed to be good but every few months the best teachers are let go and replaced with cheaper, less experienced and not qualified replacements. Extra-curricular activities are non existent and forget about any parent teacher involvement. You cannot get an appointment to speak to anyone in the school about your child regardless of how many times you try. There is zero feedback. You find out your child's progress when you get the report card when it's too late to effect the outcome. There is no parent teacher interaction and no attempt by the school to involve the parents in anything.

Overall, the impression is this school is run for profit, is in over their heads, severely understaffed and overworked. Everything good for the students is seemingly secondary to making or keeping the school profitable. It is not a good school if your child is gifted or excels academically. Find another school.

Open Quote MAC is such a Wonderful School! My daughter went there for her freshman year and she loved it there. She made wonderful friends, and the academics there are amazing.
Thank you once again Moorays! Close Quote

Open Quote My daughter has attended this school since it's inception. Even though I love the fact that she is learning a new skill, I hate the fact that the academic portion of school is completely neglected. I'm pulling her out this year. I cannot deal with this school's inability to communicate with parents and provide a stable learning environment. Your kid could be failing all their work and you will never get a call from a teacher. Try contacting the director, you will never get a call back either. I think this school has good intentions but they're in over their heads. Close Quote

Open Quote My child started in the music program at MAC. I am so impressed with the discipline of the students and the level of care of the administration and teachers. With the appropriate funding this is slated to become a top, top charter school- heads up Miami Dade Coutny Public Schools School Board and give some recognition in the way of funding to exceptional schools - the parents here pay taxes too. Cannot say enough good things and cannot wait to see how my child and this school develop. Close Quote

Open Quote MAC is a great school with very loving teachers. THe classes are small and turoring is offfered morning and afternoons. Teachers provide students with their emails and class websites so contact with teachers is very easy. THe arts teacher are great people who prosper in the things they teach. Any student will be glad to have joined the MAC family Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
