Who We Are
There is nothing so important and necessary to the future of our country than the development of ethical, moral, educated citizens. Regardless of economic collapse, war, disease or natural disaster, our country survives because its citizens shrug off their burdens and begin again. America is not a piece of land, nor is it an economic or political structure. America is its people.
Welcome to the only college prep school that is based on the history and traditions of the United States Marine Corps. The Marine Military Academy prides itself on instilling the core values that are cherished by Marines - honor, courage, and commitment - in our corps of cadets.
We develop disciplined, morally strong, college ready young men who are prepared for responsible leadership.
The proof is in our product. This past year, our graduates have been accepted - many with scholarships - to the most prestigious colleges and universities in the world, including the United States Military Academy, the United States Merchant Marine Academy, the University of Chicago, Johns Hopkins Universtiy, the University of Texas, Texas A&M, and many, many more. All of our graduates were accepted to institutions of higher learning.
Academics
The Marine Military Academy adheres to a higher standard in virtually every discipline than do comparable schools. Physical fitness is a priority, and physical training is performed as a battalion event at least three times a week. Every cadet participates in an extracurricular activity, ranging from football to the drill team. We have equal pride in our academics, which, while stressing the basics, have some of the most modern facilities and techniques in the country. We purposely keep class size down to encourage individual attention and we have a broad range of courses, to include Mandarin Chinese. Through our dual enrollment program cadets can earn college credits at no additional expense. And cadets have the chance to obtain their pilots license - or higher certifications - through our dynamic Marine Military Academy Air Wing program.
Students only receive financial aid after they have been with the academy for 1 year.
