We're tops again!
Niche just released their annual school rankings this week, and MSA has once again been named the #1 Middle School in Minnesota. Not only that, they were the 39th ranked school in the nation.
Our High School wasn't too far behind, ranking #2 in the state.
This is all possible because of the dedication, hard work, and commitment of our students, families, and staff.

Coming off of a three-day weekend may be difficult for some, but not our Dragons. They are back at it without skipping a beat.
Check out what they're learning on this rainy Monday.
Ms. Nielsen's CIS History (a University of Minnesota course) was studying about the Middle Passage, otherwise known as the Atlantic slave trade. Students were discussing the horrible conditions that were experienced by captured humans and searched a database that recorded the thousands of voyages.
Mr. Barth and his AP Calculus AB students were tackling functions, more specifically rational functions . There's nothing more exciting then intervals, discontinuity, asymptote, and knowing that the unit test is next Friday.

First A day of the school year and the students and teachers are already putting in work! Mr. Leonhardi's AP Stats class was hard at work collecting data and plotting points while Ms. Huang's World Lit class discussed books that have had an impact on their lives. Way to go Dragons!
Our MSA students are doing wonderful things in the community. Today, we want to recognize Lydia Darsow and the incredible work she is doing through her project, One Storytime. This project provides free children's books in multiple languages so every child can enjoy stories they understand and love.
You can support Lydia and One Storytime at One Woodbury on September 26th, where she will have a table with free books available for young children.

We build lifelong relationships with our students. These current and former Dragons have been working all summer long, climbing ladders, running cables, labeling Chromebooks, and hanging SMART boards and TVS. Great job guys!
It's still summer, but our MSA students are still doing wonderful things. Recently, Lincoln was awarded the Minnesota Civic Seal award, recognizing him in his work with voter pre-registration. Lincoln was one of only 23 students in the entire state of Minnesota to be given this recognition. Congrats Lincoln!
Congratulations MSA students, you're #1 again. Our ACT score is top in the state with an average of 30. We also did great with an average score of 1370 for the SAT. Way to go Dragons!
Help us congratulate our April SOTM winners!
