The school’s dedicated teaching staff is at the heart of its mission, delivering high-quality instruction and enrichment across an extended eight-hour school day as one of two CPS extended learning schools.
FMA offers a rich variety of programs to enhance student development, including Kodaly method music, art, physical education, library skills, technical skills, and health.

FMA celebrates diversity through various events and activities year- round, fostering a sense of community and belonging. The school community embraces the values of C.A.R.E.S. (Curiosity, Attitude, Responsibility, Excellence, Self-Discipline) to guide students towards personal and academic growth.
