“10 things I love about SAAS. 1. The teachers truly care about each student. 2. The music, dance, theatrical and visual arts programs are a bridge to a future filled well rounded interests. 3. The humanities are brought to light with genuine enthusiasm. 4. Math is taught in a clear and relevant way. 5. Science springs from the pages of the text books, with hands on learning, in an energized class room. 6. School is taken out of the class room and into the real world with class trips and retreats. 7. The outdoors and travel programs nurture learning as well as adventure. 8. Sports create camaraderie on the field as well as in school. 9. It s a safe place to be yourself & stretch yourself & learn what you can contribute to the world. 10. SAAS is not just a school, it s a community. - a SAAS grad .”

“We are middle school parents and have been very impressed with SAAS. If you are looking at the top private schools in the city this will likely be your child's first choice when they come home from their interview. Well balanced curriculum, challenging academically, very high participation rate in their athletic and club programs.”

“Many students seem to think the school is an alternative school vs. a preparatory school. Many students choose to do the work while others are the typical 'I could care less' high school student. Sports program is excellent. The visual arts program receives high marks. As for parental involvement - if you are a liberal you'll fit right in.”

“My daughter went to this school for high school. It is an academically rigorous program with interactive, personal relationships between students and teachers. There is tremendous support for students from the faculty. When my student struggled with depression in tenth grade, all her teachers were supportive and accomodating. The arts are a strong focus here and are done exceedingly well.”
