"I am a former student of NFMAA. I absoultely LOVED it. Teachers actually care. They want you to succeed. Great Arts program. I recommend Drama, and Physical Education, Ms. Black is a excellent teacher. The only thing I don't agree on, is the DRESS CODE. If the werent worried about punishing us maybe we could get or A+ rating. I hope this review helped."

"i have had my issues with the school, but honestly, they have always made a quick effort to get them resolved. The teachers are great at communicating, but you have to make the first move. Otherwise my children enjoy the variety of arts they didn't get in a non-magnet school. Uniform policy is strict, and they have stiff rules about fighting and bulling...but that is a definite plus to me. Dr. Santini is wonderful and they have alot of positive reward systems to inspire the children to do thier best."

"This school would be a fantastic school if they weren't so preoccupied with what the children wear and how they wear it. Harsh penalties are doled out for even the slightest offenses and are tallied up to equal even harsher penalties as the school year progresses. If they focused on education as much as clothing and discipline, their school grade would probably be able to move from the 'C' that they have now. They also have low FCAT scores (probably due to the lack of educational focus). No help is afforded by the teachers, with whom I have had conferences to get past these issues. Discipline is their main focus at this school."
