Math, Science, and Technology (MaST) Community Charter School is a public charter school located in Somerton, Northeast Philadelphia. It has 1,487 students in grades K-12.

History

[edit]

The school was founded by Karen DelGuercio in 1999 and was established in what was once an old steel factory. The school building was remodeled at the end of the 2004 school year, and two years later expansion led to the construction of a new school building. In the last five years a library and media center, a fitness center, and a maker studio have been added.[1] In 2014, MaST was one of four Philadelphia public schools to exceed the national average SAT score.[2]
