MAST Boys and Girls Team Win GMAC Championship
Both our boys and girls teams are the GMAC Champions!! As long as I have been following this team, I do not recall a year when both the girls and boys teams won. The Miami Herald wrote a wonderful piece about the young kids on both teams after winning the GMAC Titles. Our girls team are this year's District Champions. Defeating Ransom in a tight one goal game last week. Unfortunately, our girls were knocked out of the playoffs yesterday afternoon and their amazing season comes to an end in the Regional Semifinal. Our boys however, have advanced to the FHSAA regional championship where they will face Gulliver Prep tomorrow evening at Belen Jesuit. The winner of that game will advance to the 2024 FHSAA State Championship. |

6th grade Scientist Thai Durham Places First in states
Thai Durham did amazing at the state science fair this past week. He made history by not only being the only student from all of MAST to advance to states, but he also took home some prizes that included cash, 1st place and recognition by some pretty amazing people. It’s an amazing patent-pending project! He committed to all that I asked him to, from weekends to after school hours and more. This scientist delivered and represented MAST well; exceeding the MAST standards in which we have. Thanks to my amazing 6th grade team for your unwavering support, the administration, EESAC, PTSA and all who played an integral part in Thai’s success. We won! |
