What will be done with my students

The purpose of our publication is to amplify the voice of the student. Not only do we address matters within the school, our paper goes above and beyond. We discuss actions taken in our county, in our state, and world-wide, providing the perspective of our generation. We do things unlike any other school.

Benefits to my students

The Wave has been recognized by SNO Sites on multiple occasions, and has been awarded numerous badges annually. These badges address aspects of outstanding journalism.

SNO Sites also offers curriculum and lessons that cover writing and reporting, multimedia, and principles of journalism.

Budget Narrative

Although MIA is located on destination island, many of the students that attend the school come from families with humble beginnings that work extremely hard to support one another.

We believe that every student at MIA deserves to experience the same opportunities as their peers and attempt to provide as many as we are able. Yet, there are roadblocks to funding them, as charter schools must fundraise to merely operate our buildings and support our budgets each year.

Grants such as these provide tremendous help in financially supporting students' passions and connecting us back to the true reason we are all invested in education.
