About Maximo Elementary

Maximo Elementary MicroSociety® Program is a nationally recognized Magnet Program, which offers a rigorous curriculum and a safe learning environment for its students. Students at Maximo experience real-world, hands-on learning as they participate in the MicroSociety program.

MicroSociety is a research-based educational program that allows students to transform the school into a miniature community of the real world.
