IDEA Mays ROCKS 🎸🎤 The 25-26 school year brought Theatre Arts to Mays Academy for the first time since the school launched in 2016. Ms. Villanueva, a founding teacher at IDEA Mays and our Fine Arts electives teacher hosted open auditions and rehearsals for a spring musical in February. Our take on the School of Rock Musical allowed scholars from 1st through 5th grade along with support of our CP scholars perform for an audience and showcase the incredible budding talents of our scholars.

✅ We Are College Ready!
Major shoutout to these 9th graders who passed some of their TSI subject exams, exempting them from remedial courses in college.
🎓What is TSI? The Texas Success Initiative is a College Readiness test that determines if our students are ready for college-level coursework in Math and English. Passing the TSI benchmark ensures our students are enrolled in college-level courses when they enter college, which in turn saves them time in completing their degree and money by not having to pay for remedial courses.
At IDEA Mays, TSI instruction, tutoring, and testing are offered multiple times a year, starting as early as 9th grade. We prepare 100% of scholars to be college-ready by the time they enter college.
