Our school is a place where gifted boys will receive the education and guidance needed to help them maximize their innate greatness.

The Benjamin E. Mays Male Academy philosophy of education contains many components. An emphasis on sound academic instruction assures that the students' minds are developed at a level that will allow them to compete in a global, technological society. Christian values are taught in each classroom and reinforced throughout the school day beginning with morning devotions.

Through an Afro-centric emphasis that is imbued within all parts of the curricula, the students' appreciation of their culture and history is heightened. Yet, they are trained in the socialization skills necessary for them to interact - in any setting - with people of varied ethnic, social, and economic backgrounds. Mays Academy teachers expect excellence from each and every student. The teachers nurture and guide the youngsters to reach their fullest potential which, in turn, enhances each student's confidence, leadership skills, and self-esteem.

Because students today must be active learners and develop higher-level critical thinking skills, class sizes are limited to twenty students. This gives Mays Academy teachers the opportunity to develop an intense working relationship with each student in the classroom, thereby encouraging curiosity and inquiry.
