MLA has set strict guidelines and high expectations for its faculty and administration. Not only must they be certified in the content area that they teach or administer, but they must also be actively involved in personal continuing education goals. The MLA faculty and administration not only meet these guidelines but also enthusiastically search for ways in which to become better teachers and administrators for your children.
