I went to his school back when it was still starting out. Great learning environment and structure that generates personal drive for advancement. It also helped me prepare for my career in the Army and I am still active-duty. Even if a child does not want to seek a military future, I'd recommend it...

I've had 2 children at Maritime and am very pleased. The leadership program is an excellent way to build character. The teachers were very accessible and worked so hard to help the kids connect. I love seeing them in the Navy uniform. It helped my child to focus on school. Lots of tutoring available...
