        "The Premier Private Academy in Houston" Say goodbye to information overload. Our purpose, our primary goal is to nurture young minds, providing creative solutions for students who may not fit the old- school mold.

        General Info
        What is the goal? Is it as simple as teaching the principles of geometry and physics? Or is it preparation for college? At Alexander-Smith Academy, we believe our purpose, our primary goal is to nurture young minds, providing the tools and tests necessary to help students develop intellectual maturity. For 43 years we've helped young adults expand their minds and challenge their thinking. We've helped them learn about history and English and science and math. We've helped them learn more about themselves, who they are and what they're capable of accomplishing. And they've responded. ASA is dedicated to individual educational instruction. We offer a challenging curriculum on three levels: college-preparatory, honors and advanced placement. ASA classes at all levels are taught in a structured, individualized environment. At ASA, we've developed the classes to help students get the most from the learning process. Classes are small enough (5-7 students per class) for students to get the personal attention they need. Classes are large enough, however, to foster interaction, discussion and debate.

The minimum course load at ASA is five class periods per day, and the maximum is seven class periods a day. Students are individually scheduled in blocks of time Monday through Thursday. Friday is reserved for tutorials, group workshops, and extra-curricular activies. ASA's student body reflects a unique population and the school serves students who have distinct educational needs. Actors, models, ballerinas, equestrians and athletes in training for the Olympics need daily time requirements for the extra curricular activities, and ASA can offer each student individual flexibility.

        Instruction

        ASA is THE PERFECT school for students that have a talent or passion for an activity outside school. The student body is filled with serious athletes, actors, singers and others that make the most of their time away from school. It has been a gift for my daughter, an equestrian, to receive top-notch academic instruction while competing in her sport at a national level. Even though there aren't many sports and clubs provided by the school, I'm going to give the highest rating in each because it gives students the opportunity to pursue sports and other activities more than any other private school in Houston! Thank you ASA!
