IDEA Mays

🚀A Blast from the Past: Time Capsule projects from Ms. Santana's 3rd grade Reading & Language Arts classes allowed students to develop their skills specifically surrounding researching historical figures, gathering important facts and providing written explanations that show why each artifact is important to that person's life.

IDEA Mays is proud to offer a well-rounded curriculum for all scholars from Kindergarten through 12th grade. We're ready to meet your scholar where they're at academically and help them to succeed beyond their wildest dreams! at IDEA Mays, apply today: ideapublicschools.org/apply

Family Testimony Tuesday: Hear from real IDEA Mays parents and Founding Families about the impact of their time at Mays.

"IDEA Mays es una escuela excepcional. Si tuviera que describirla, la compararía con un maratón: aquí no dejan a ningún estudiante atrás. Al contrario, toman a cada niño de la mano, lo apoyan en cada paso del camino y lo ayudan a llegar a la meta junto con los demás."

Leticia Salinas, Madre de Familia de IDEA Mays

Family Testimony Tuesday: Hear from real IDEA Mays parent and Founding Family about the impact of their time at Mays.

"What stands out most to me, however, is not just their academic growth but how they view their future. When I was growing up, college felt like something reserved for other people—wealthy families or exceptionally gifted students. It wasn’t presented as a natural next step for kids like us. My sister and I became first-generation college students, and while we were proud to earn our degrees, we had to navigate that path largely on our own."

Melissa Campos, IDEA Mays Parent
