My daughter has attended SAS since the spring of 2021. The school navigated the pandemic with attention to detail and provided a supportive environment.

Wonderful school. I love all the teachers here and love boarding. There are some small issues with the administration, but they seem to be fixing that. Wonderful people, never felt so loved and safe at a school. The town is nice, with plenty of perfect hangout spots.

The campus is beautiful. My child loves attending school here.
