Admiral Farragut Academy is a very diverse school with children from all over the world. The education levels at Farragut was tremendous. All teachers I had always showed high interest in what they taught. Lesson plans were arranged perfectly so we could understand the material. Sports at the school were not so good. Mainly because the football program was ended. The result of that led me to only run track. The military structure we are taught at Farragut help us better prepare for the real world. Basic principles such as respect and manners were all taught at Farragut and I am forever thankful to be a Admiral Farragut Academy Alumni.

I love this school and especially the girls varsity basketball program. I've been on the team for so many years and I've made so many long lasting friendships. It has great team building and overall a great vibe. If you know anyone interested let them know. I love the girls on my team and I will miss them when I graduate. They are like family to me.

Online courses are fantastic! The instruction is just as good as in-person instruction. For almost every course they offer, they have a range of in-person and online options. Any student enrolled at one of the three campuses can take classes online from any of the others. This guarantees that studen...

I am a first-year student at the AFA. I like the school's location, the environment, and how pleasant everyone is. The teachers are wonderful and patient. Choosing AFA as my second home was without a doubt one of the best decisions I've ever made. Academics are outstanding, instructors are highly in...
