From winning excellence in academics sports and science competitions to creating beautiful art, each accomplishment reflects the dedication of our entire school community. Let us continue to celebrate these milestones and build upon them.

Our classrooms are dynamic hubs of exploration. We encourage active participation, critical thinking, and collaboration. Whether it's a spirited debate, a science experiment, or a literary analysis, our students are at the heart of every lesson. Their growth is our greatest reward.

Our exceptional teachers and staff members are the backbone of S.M.A. Their passion, expertise, and unwavering commitment drive our success. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to each one of them for their tireless efforts in shaping young minds. My heartiest thanks to the alumni association of EXMA for their kind support and encouragement together with their unwavering spirit in conducting and organizing various events and programs to guide the school based on their rich and vast experiences of life. My sincerest thanks to all my brothers in the community and in the province for having faith in me and giving me this opportunity to take the institution to a greater height with whatever talent and gifts God has bestowed on me.
