(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - As I attended mptcs I had the best time of my life.I first came to mptcs in 2000 I was in the third grade each day I came their we had morning meeting because we was all family.But they made sure we got our work done before we played any games.This school was very serious about getting our work done.Now im a ninth grader graduated out of Marion P. Thomas Charter School and every time I step foot back into this school even when im not in the school I know in my mind and in my heart im still part of mptcs an forever will be a tiger.
