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

I was in delta since I was 13 years old and graduated when I was 21 years old. Although there were…read moresome problem kids no place is perfect. 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.

Woodrow Wilson Middle School is the worst middle school in the history of middle schools when you…read morewalk in it smells like old vomit the staff are disrespectful not to mention the students are bullies and you if go to that school first thing you see are the students fighting everyday and the teachers do nothing about it last thing i wanna say is that the hallways are trashed and the bathrooms are trashed too so I'm gonna end this message with this NEVER GO TO THIS SCHOOL

The worse middle I could have put my child in. If you have other options for your child take it. I…read morehave interacted with so many staff that hate their jobs that its a shame, even the school Police. All of the bathrooms are always locked. There is no time of day they can use the bathroom without having to find a staff member first. Its worse than prison. It is a basic human right to be able to use a bathroom. When you walk in the office you're are lucky if you're greeted. Once you are hopefully it is not from the rude one that sits directly to the left of the office door. She is very rude when talking to people, all while sucking her teeth and huffing and puffing under her breath that she now has to do her job. If that's not bad enough she snatches your documents out of your hand too. We are not fully five months into the school year yet, my husband and I have been up to the school at least twice a month since school started for bulling. Teachers keep the kids past the bell and expect them to have to serve a detention with the next teacher because they don't give them a note. Today we had to go up there because she was being bullied during class time and the teacher did NOTHING my daughter ended up so upset so felt NO other choice but to pack her belongings and leave the class. Don't even get me started on the lack of education on top of it. At this point we feel we have NO other choice but to remove her from this school. She has endured enough!! I could keep going, but I won't I'm you get the point I'm trying to make.

The property is huge and features a track, baseball field and a small playground. The area is clean and quiet. I hope to start running here regularly.

Please consider looking at Ryan as a choice for your child's education. The teachers,…read moreadministrators, and staff are very friendly and personable and will help you with anything you need. Ryan offers over 30 clubs and activities as well as many sports (boys and girls) that will help your child find his/her individual interests. The students here are not treated as just a number but for who they really are. This is something that you will not find at other schools. If you want your child to succeed and go beyond others, Ryan is the place to send him/her.

What's not to love about this school. It's high school musical in the city lol. It has everything a…read morestudent would want and more. People give it a bad name saying is ghetto, but it's 3,500 students. There are bad apples of course but there are many more gems! I worked at NE for over 5 years and loved it. The admin there is amazing, the principal Mr. Crowder is by far the best principal in the city in how he cares for his students and staff. All the APs are AMAZING as well. From Greaves to McDaniels they all are helpful and caring. They looked out for me when my daughter was attending and kept me in the loop. NEHS, a school of great character, and a place you would love to work for and have a child attend.
