Mater Academy Lakes Middle School in Hialeah, Florida

“I love Mater Lakes Middle because it is a small environment school. The number of kids in each grade are less and this helps the kids have a more on one to one basis with their teachers. Also, the education level is much higher than a regular public school.”

“There isn't as many extracurricular activities as there should be. The FCAT peprally was terrible! Eevn though Power 96 was there, it did NOTHING AT ALL to motivate students to do well on the FCAT and was for a maximum of 15 minutes. Not even the cheerleaders performed! All they did was sit down and listen to some girl who dressed like a boy. What message is this sending out to our children? Be a boy if your a girl? This school is very disorganized: My child did not get a barcode on her student ID and the office did nothing to fix it. Also, sixth graders do not change classes or have electives. This isn't fair. But overall the school is clean, but they need mre PE equipment. The cafeteria is fairly big & staff is very friendly.”

“Awesome! There is no other school like this one! Sure, they don't get electives in middle school, and the direction of the main office is terrible, but you can live!”

“My daughter just entered this year for junior high and she loved it! Very exceptinal. The only thing that I don't like is the office. It is run by a few high school girls doing community service and they don't tell me as much as a proffesional employee would direct me.”

“This is a great school! It is very, very small making it better. Everyone gets along, there are a lot of extracurricular activities and sports, the principal is absolutely amazing, the teachers are great, and we get very high FCAT scores. Very safe and everyone knows everyone. A lot of good talent around the school as well. Definitely recommend this school.”
