Open House for New MMA Cadets About Our School Military Magnet Academy (MMA) prepares cadets to become academically competent, disciplined, and responsible citizens. In addition to offering rigorous coursework for young men and women, the school applies a military environment that teaches students the importance of civic duty. MMA is the first of its kind in the nation, and is located off Rivers Avenue in North Charleston. It opened in 1997 as a school for students in grades 6 to 8. The magnet school now serves students in grades 6 to 12. In 2009, substantial renovations to the building were completed, making MMA the perfect state-of-the-art learning environment for students across the county. MMA is not a discipline school, but instead is a school that builds discipline. The curriculum is challenging and designed to prepare students for today s workforce or post-secondary education. The school helps students to build leadership characteristics. Every cadet is an asset, and MMA believes that every cadet can and will be successful.
