About MPS
There’s a place where everyone belongs at MPS.
We create experiences where our learners feel challenged and free to explore the world. We guide students to grow and achieve, wherever they are in their academic journey.
Our students break the mold, and we celebrate that. Regardless of what you look like, what language you speak, how you pray or who you love, we welcome you to learn and grow as part of our MPS community.
