Parent Choice Schools

Parent choice schools represent an evolution in the education of our students. These schools offer students and parents an opportunity to choose the learning environment that best suits their goals and interests. "We initially chose The International School at Mary Mae Jones for its vibrant diversity, but soon discovered it offers much more beyond. MMJ nourishes students with heart, transforming cultural transitions into a confidant journey where every unique dream learns to shine." -Michelle Wang & Ivan Liu (Parents of Chloe Liu) Chloe Liu Class of 2037
