🎉 MACA’s Renaissance Team is “Better Than Good”! 🎉
Yesterday, our Renaissance Team attended the Josten’s “Better Than Good Rally” in Baton Rouge, joining schools from across the Gulf Region! 🌊
Our students and staff came back with fresh ideas, resources, and an amazing sense of enthusiasm to make MACA an even more positive place. As they roll out monthly incentives through our PBIS program and gear up for our Renaissance Rally this spring, they’re truly “All In” to keep MACA a strong and supportive family. 💪💙
Together, we’re Better Than Good—and that’s what makes MACA an incredible school!
