SAS not only helped me develop the skills necessary to succeed in college and beyond, but the community taught me who I wanted to be. I left with an understanding of self and a sense of purpose.

I personally go to St. Andrews and I love it. The environment is amazing, full of nice people always willing to help, and although the location is secluded, it creates this feeling of togetherness as if we were our own little town.

The classes at SAS teach students divergent thinking through interactive and creative lessons similar to a college classroom. The teachers understand school is only one aspect of students' lives and are always happy to help in any way they can.
