MY CITY SCHOOL

Changing Middle School Education Through Inspiration
Donate

Educational Community for Middle Schoolers who benefit from non-traditional learning environments


​Hands-On Learning Through Direct Experience in Small Educational Pods​

High Support and High Expectations 3:1 Ratios for Core Classes

Strong Fundamentals in Math, Reading, Writing & Science

Focused on Closing Gaps and Preparing Students for High School, College
or Higher Education



                    At My City School, students learn how they learn best, and develop personal strategies
            they can bring to high school and higher education. My City School removes the stigma of learning
differently and embraces the gifts that come with each learning style.


My City School was founded on the belief that students with LD are learners with high potential and who deserve access to multisensory instruction across curriculum; including science, art, history, language arts, and math. We have re-imagined the LD classroom to be a place of dynamic and results driven instruction, partnered with enthusiastic and engaged students. Some new students enter the school feeling burnt out and hopeless but soon discover how good it feels to be a successful student. After five years, MCS has become more than just a school - we have become a resource to the community to help understand not only how to teach kids differently, but how to design an entire learning experience that re-ignites and
fosters a love of learning.

Teaching Social Justice 

Students everywhere are being exposed to many important social issues that can bring about questions and concerns. To help educators and parents better navigate these needs, we have added a list of resources focusing on topics like Social Justice and Diversity in the classroom on our Resource page. Please explore them with your child, and help students further amplify their voices and curiosities.

Students Say...

“Learning here is like a summer camp!”  - Ella, 2017

“Now that I am with people who are kind and understand me, I see how much I’ve grown”  
- Charlotte, 2018

​
“Learning was an adventure of a lifetime”  - Jess, 2018

"MCS is much more interesting than my old school. We get to build things in math here to learn - at my old school, we would just do the word problem."    - Anais, 2019

Parents Say...

Picture
"I have seen phenomenal changes in my daughter since she has become an MCS student. She went from being an introverted, person, who was afraid to raise her hand for fear of being wrong, to a confident young woman, who speaks her mind, asks questions, and works really hard. She has a new found understanding and a deep appreciation for time management, schedule planning, and multitasking. This is something I never thought I would see. [She] is well prepared for not only high school, but she also has critical life skills. She doesn’t just look at short term goals, she looks at the long term outcome of things and that is a powerful perspective to have in life." 
          - Kelly, MCS parent for 2 years
​

"Since our child joined My City School, we have seen a significant reduction in her anxiety which shows up across the board and not just in relation to school.The approach to teaching has really helped our daughter experience success, which has significantly raised her confidence and lowered her anxiety.”

​"It’s hard to put into words the changes we’ve seen in our daughter in the two years (6th and 7th grade) she’s been attending MCS.  When she started 6th grade she was pretty quiet, reserved and didn’t have much confidence as a learner.  With the help of the tremendous staff and resources at MCS, as well as her own hard work, [She] shows much more confidence in her ability to tackle various learning challenges in different subjects.  She’s blossomed as a creative writer, has expanded and grown as a person, and developed leadership skills -  she enjoys helping and teaching other students."
           - Jeff, MCS parents for 2 years
