MCA is the most rigorous school in Collier County. Utilizing a classical curriculum, MCA holds all students to a higher bar and challenges them. Out of four schools my children have attended, this one is the BEST! They've been at MCA for 3 years so I've seen 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th grade. Amazing - no other school in SWFL compared.
