An Empowering Education
Missouri Military Academy's 360° Education is uniquely suited for boys seeking to prepare for college and life. The rigorous daily schedule helps high school and middle school boys mature into young men by providing them with structure and responsibility.

Take Command of the Future
“His grades were night and day improvement. He said he felt like it was easier to make friends (at MMA). His self-confidence has improved, and he is a happier child. Landon takes initiative in his own life. We have a conversation about a potentially bad grade and he just takes it upon himself to get a teacher, figure out tutoring and do what he needs to do to get that grade up.” — Jennifer Kjohlede, MMA Mom
