About the school

Chicago Military Academy at Bronzeville is now an Early College STEM School! Our mission is to prepare cadets for college and post-secondary success through a rigorous and relevant college preparatory curriculum. With the military model providing a culture and structure for social, emotional and academic success, cadets develop leadership and applied academic skills. CMA-B cadets who enter the Academy with drive and self-discipline learn and practice authentic leadership skills that benefit them and their communities for a lifetime. As an Early College STEM school, CMA-B students will have access to hands-on classes in STEM fields, dual credit/dual enrollment, STEM-based learning outside of the classroom, and STEM career job readiness programs. We are 1:1 technology Academy. The school bridges the rich history of the Bronzeville and the historic 8th Infantry Armory with new renovations, including state-of-the-art science labs.
