MSAS' Mission

We believe through the arts and sciences our school will create an atmosphere in which all students will be intrinsically motivated. Low child to teacher ratio, family contracts and community interaction facilitates the students’ ability to construct their own knowledge. We maintain high expectations for all students to grow academically, physically, emotionally, and socially in order to continue their growth as citizens and their love of Manatee County.

MSAS' Vision

Our vision is to provide a clear and shared focus on student education with students, families, staff and administration. MSAS will maintain an atmosphere of high expectations, so students will grow to be leaders academically, socially, and emotionally in their communities. Staff members will effectively collaborate in order to provide an environment of learning that will foster internal motivation on the part of the students in order to strive for success. School leadership will provide a workplace culture which fosters respect, collaboration, and professional development. MSAS will maintain an environment where staff and students feel safe and secure; an environment conducive to learning and family involvement to produce student academic and personal growth as citizens of Manatee County.
