Smaller Classes
We strive to have each executive learn and prosper in a supportive atmosphere. Our highly qualified teachers created an enthusiastic environment where learning is motivating, stimulating, and innovative. MBA HH is committed to keeping class sizes small, and we take great pride in our low teacher-executive ratio (1:15).

Culture to Academics
We believe our community’s greatest asset is our children. At MBA HH, this means investing in our students’ academically, emotionally, and social well-being. In other words, we believe in educating the WHOLE CHILD. Our executives’ social skills were impacted due to COVID quarantine, virtual learning, and the overuse of technology. Therefore, we implemented Club Day Fridays. Club Day Fridays are clubs that were created to develop our executives’ communication skills and to teach them how to work as a team effectively. On Club Days, our executives and teachers must store their devices, choose a club, and work together to be creative.

Business Curriculum
The MBA Experience is Growing tomorrow’s leaders to transform lives and communities. To ensure that our executives have the support needed to be successful in school and beyond, we seek to build and expand relationships with community partners. MBA HH combines subjects related to business, economics, and financial literacy into the core curriculum. Our belief is that by relating academic subjects to the business world, we will help our executives to build a better future and encourage our “young executives” to one day help support the economic well-being of our community.
