Haun Lead Teacher for Cambridge Program Ms. Dana Ligocki-Vignale 2 MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL Family involvement plays a critical role in determining a child's success in school. MAST Academy provides numerous opportunities for parent involvement: an active PTSA, several booster groups, the Educational Excellence School Advisory Council, assistance with field trips, academic symposia, and classroom volunteerism. The many avenues for involvement underscore our belief that the process of educating a child requires a partnership between the home and the school. I encourage parents to reinforce the high educational standards MAST sets for students and to recommend ways to improve school procedures and establish even higher learning goals. You might want to consider following MAST Academy CAP office and MAST Academy PTSA on Facebook. This along with MAST’s website http://www.Gomakos.com will provide a wealth of information about parent meetings, school-related fundraisers and college admissions. You will find in this document the procedures and policies that govern students and staff on a daily basis. Perhaps you will find the opportunity to relax for a few minutes and read the Parent Handbook. What emerges in these pages is a practical guide to navigating MAST Academy. Please contact me if you require clarification on any of the issues addressed here. Sincerely, Jane Garraux, Principal 3 MISSION MAST Academy provides a marine setting and nurturing environment for studies leading to academic success, career preparation, an appreciation of the sea, and environmental awareness. Stakeholders work together to instill a commitment to life-long learning and to advance and improve a challenging curriculum integrated with the sciences and technology. BELIEFS We at MAST Academy believe that: • Curriculum, instructional practices, and assessments must incorporate a variety of learning activities and opportunities to enable students to achieve academic success. • Individual student performance is increased when students are actively involved in the learning process, presented with a challenging curriculum, and provided with a variety of instructional approaches. • A safe, attractive, comfortable, and clean environment promotes student learning. • Students should be encouraged to be members of an academic family that sets high standards for everyone. • Stakeholders share the responsibility for advancing the school’s mission and nurturing intellectual freedom. • A small focused center where stakeholders truly care about each other is the MAST model. SCHOOL DESCRIPTION MAST Academy is a maritime and science technology public high school of choice, designed for 681 students in grades 8 - 12. Students who have high academic and personal development expectations seek admission through a multifaceted application process. Students use a range of technology applications and real world laboratory equipment to experience hands-on learning. Different learning styles are addressed through diversified teaching strategies, simulations, and internship/job placements. Athletics and activities incorporate the marine theme. INVOLVEMENT MAST Academy encourages parent involvement and awareness.

Parents, teachers and counselors will assist students in determining the proper courses for the 2011-2012 school year. The registration process should involve many individuals, not just the student. Lawton Chiles Middle School offers a wide variety of academic and elective courses. Every effort will be made to grant each student his/her first choice of an elective; however, due to the constraints of the master schedule, the second or third choice may be utilized. Additionally, every middle school student must take at least one semester of physical education. Counselors will be meeting with all students to discuss the course offerings and academic requirements. If you have any questions regarding the registration process, please call your child’s counselor. We look forward to your continued support in helping us make your child’s educational program the best one possible.
