The teachers there taught me a lot that I needed to know and how to function out in the world and how to hold onto a real job. I admit that I haven't visited lately but I can say that this school is good for those with special needs.

Great School. Awessome afterschool programs. Great Teachers. Has Student Council. 100% reccomend.read more

08' ALUM, first to review, woot-woot!…read more I ADORE MaST Charter and seriously miss it so much. A lot has changed for the better since I graduated. Not that anything was wrong when I was there, but all of us alum are jealous of the new broadcasting studio, library/lounge, and entire new building! This school is a K-12, meaning if you're child is lucky enough to get in early, you would be a fool to send them to another school. MaST is easily the best school in Philadelphia. Why you ask? Do you know any other charter school that has a multimillion dollar expansion, small classroom sizes, teachers who know every student in the grade by first and last name? Also, I was just telling someone how you could never skip class at MaST no matter how slick you think you are. The teachers notice when their students are gone and will notify their parent/guardian. I know from experience... oooucch. As lame as it sounds, this school is seriously like a gigantic family. I know plenty of people who went to public schools or other charters and they are shocked to hear that I graduated with 77 other students. We were are friends or at least acquaintances and went on a class trip to Disney together. MaST now has opportunities to take trips abroad (with chaperone's of course). This school is also EXTREMELY safe. No metal detectors or security is needed here. Save all that fro Washington or Lincoln. From an educational standpoint, I thought this school was not a walk in the park by any means. You could always get help if you needed it, whether it was from teachers staying late to other students. They have a good amount of sports teams at MaST except football which a lot of the boys complained about, but they would have tag football games from time to time. I had such a great time in high school (I went to MaST such 5th grade, but really started to appreciate it in 8th-12th). Apply ASAP! Students are chosen by a lottery system. I will be back to visit at least twice a year for the raffle and to see my fave teachers!

I based my rating on MaST 3 .. School is unorganized, my daughter isn't learning anything but play…read moretime...she's a third grader they're doing PSSA now and half the students are disruptive. it's sad when my daughter says "please take me out of the school because I'm not learning anything and take me back to Mariana Bracetti Academy" The rave reviews about the school ,I thought I was fortunate to get my daughter in there .the grass isn't always greener on the other side;hopefully she can get into maST 1 but number 3 is trash. I'm starting to believe they're treating the outside neighborhood kids differently than they do the kids that are from that neighborhood prove me wrong

IT BEATS PUBLIC SCHOOL…read more My son goes there for pre-K. We love the school and their staff. Once my daughter is old enough to attend, we will be sending her too. I only have one concern, and it's a major one, they need to tighten up security on the grounds. I would like to see them a hire a police officer or an armed security guard. I know people will probably say why, but the safety of my(and your) children is the most important thing that I think of when I'm not there with them. My wife and I pay a decent amount of money to send our son here. I wouldn't mind paying a little more if they could meet those concerns. Please don't take this review as a bad one. This was only negative that I have with the school, but I think it's worth mentioning.

I am a proud mom of 5, two of which currently attend Fitzpatrick, where they are thriving. We've…read morehad our share of ups and downs there, not many, and all was always handled with respect, delicacy and fairness. My children are straight A students and wake up everyday excited to go to school. They do not need help with their homework because they learned what they needed to that day in school. I find staff there to be pleasant, personable and knowledgeable. My children play instruments at this school and have joined various after school clubs and enjoyed every moment. I am so happy they're happy. I am much looking forward to my other three children attending Fitzpatrick in the near future. I know they will excel there while most importantly being in a safe, friendly environment. I am very thankful for the opportunity to do well for my children by sending them here.
