We’re excited to share some great news! 🎉
MACA’s very own Mary Brower has been elected Vice President of the Louisiana Council for Social Studies. This is a tremendous honor and a testament to her dedication to education and leadership in social studies. Please join us in congratulating her on this well-deserved achievement! 👏📚

This week, our juniors and seniors had the opportunity to explore the SoLaCC Mobile Lab! They learned about the many programs offered at South Louisiana Community College and participated in a virtual campus tour. 📚💻
It was a great experience that helped students explore possibilities, plan for the future, and prepare for life after high school. 🌟🎓

🤖📚 Bringing the Roaring Twenties to Life with AI! 🎷🕰️
Students recently participated in an engaging AI-powered activity through Flint K12 that brought the 1920s to life! They explored the cultural, social, economic, and political changes of this exciting era through interactive lessons and thought-provoking discussions.
Students began with guiding questions, and the AI tailored each lesson to their individual learning levels—encouraging them to dig deeper, make connections, and think critically. It was a dynamic and innovative way to strengthen their understanding of the Roaring Twenties and its lasting impact on American history! 🇺🇸✨
