I was looking for student body numbers and came across some of these ridiculous reviews. I've taught at ADM for 15 years and can't speak more highly of the Administration and the school in general. I love teaching here, the kids are kids, yes there are some students that are not the most motivated,...

I was bullie...

Despite what the data shows, ADM is a very good school. All three of my children either have or are attending there. They have learned a lot from their teachers and although it is not perfect they have enjoyed their time there.
