The mission of the Milwaukee Academy of Science, an exemplary leader in innovative science education that maximizes the potential of each young mind, is to graduate urban students prepared to compete successfully in science at the post-secondary level, by providing a rigorous 21st century curriculum taught by master educators in collaboration with students, families, staff, and the community.

 

The Milwaukee Academy of Science is an independent charter school, opened in August 2000. The school serves students from K4 through twelfth grade.

The school is governed by the Milwaukee Science Education Consortium a 501c(3) organization with representatives from the Medical College of Wisconsin, Marquette University, Cardinal Stritch University, Alverno College, and Mount Mary College.
