MAA celebrated its second Blue Ribbon Award on the Feast of St. Francis, our patron saint on October 4th. The day began with a Mass. The children then celebrated this prestigious award with Barnyard Babies, Pony Rides, magic shows, dodgeball games, inflatable obstacle courses, a barbeque, and blue raspberry slushies! What a fun day for everyone and we are so proud of our students, faculty, and staff for all their hard work and dedication to  win this award. We are looking forward to receiving the "official" award in Washington, DC on November 4th.
