Military Boarding Schools:
The Marine Military Academy sets a standard of excellence.
Military boarding schools are frequently a choice for parents who want the best in academic
excellence for their children. The Marine Military
Academy
(MMA), a college preparatory boarding school, is equipped to provide young men a top
quality education and more. The Marine Military Academy Academic Department provides
all cadets with the necessary academic and intellectual tools to succeed in college.
The environment is geared toward developing the 'whole man' - academically, mentally,
spiritually, and physically. The goals are attainable and age-appropriate but we expect
the best from our Cadets - and we usually get it!
Of the private boarding schools,
the Marine Military Academy is the only one in the world based on the
traditions, values, and ideals of the United States Marine Corps. Although academics are the
backbone of any educational organization, leadership is the muscle here at MMA. Cadets
learn through a structured, traditional military school environment self-discipline,
teamwork, motivation, how to follow, and how to lead.
Because the Marine Military Academy is an all-male boarding school with no day students,
we have 24-hours a day and seven days a week to tailor the environment to meet the
specific needs of young men. 'Brotherhood,' 'positive peer-pressure' and 'teamwork'
are but a few concepts foreign to many cadets prior to enrollment. But from their first
day on campus, cadets notice something different about their peers. Cadets encourage one
another to make good grades, they pat one another on the back for a job well done, and
more importantly, they are not afraid to correct one another for an infraction of the
rules.
The cadets reside two to a room in one of six dormitory-style barracks supervised by a
former Marine Staff Non-commissioned Officer (SNCO) called a drill instructor (DI). The
six DIs and their families provide the discipline, daily routine, and care for
approximately 50-60 8th through 12th grade cadets who live in their barracks.
All boarding schools are not alike. Marine Military Academy is committed to academic
excellence and to the academy's core values -- honor, courage, and commitment.
