As with all schools there are the positives & negatives. MMS has a really good after-school sports program that allows all kids to try-out & play sports. We loved that!! Our biggest issue with the school is the discipline problems in the classroom environment, kids lack of respect for staff/other students & administrative reluctance to punish for bad behavior, & finally, teachers need to self-evaluate & work a bit harder to challenge kids in the classroom, especially if they are in "advanced" classes.

GOOO GOOO GAHHHH GAHHHH THIS SCHOOL IS MAKING ME WANNA CALL MY DAAADAAA

I have three children attending this school. After 3 years, I know the environment at RRE to be exceptional for the development and education of their students. Everyone, from teachers and administrators to students and parents, treat one another with respect. There is a balanced offering of standardized teaching, STEM programs and civic involvement for all students. For the teachers at RRE education isn't just a numbers game: they aren't simply pushing test-driven materials. Instead, they focus on the growth and development of each student. To further this aim, exceptional attention is paid to both GEM and SPED students at RRE. I can testify to this as I have children in both programs. RRE teachers and administrators are always available to parents, and they all care, demonstrably, about each and every child. I love RRE because of the growth I've seen in my own kids. And, my kids love RRE so much that they can't wait until Monday. They WANT to go to school! For me, there are no better metrics.

This is a school for kids who are being punished within the Marana School District. Any kid referred here has already been singled out by their high school's administrators who have probably already called ahead to "warn" ACE about the student, so they really can't get a fair shot. The staff treats the kids like criminals, so that's how the kids act and that's how they end up feeling about themselves. There are several free charter schools or online schools in the area where kids are treated with respect that are much better choices. A.C.E. staff treats kids like the expect them to fail, so they often end up doing just that. Don't ever send your kid here, go with a charter school and put all the drama and administration incompetence behind you!

We travel so kids had no choice to be enrolled, I think the kids get a better education, communication is key, but if things go astray teacher will attempt. To get in contract with student. They seem to be making improvements, when we started ours kids were instructed to do apprpxmately an hour per course per day, they now show on the sigh on whether they have. Late items etc, big improvement for parents, we get weekly updates for our kids in grades and time completed in the past week.
