School Notes
We require each student, interested in attending ASA, to
schedule an appointment to visit our school with his or her
parents. For this appointment the student should bring the most
current report card, all transcripts and test scores. Students may
be required to take a math and/or writing test to ensure proper
placement.
ASA is THE PERFECT school for students that have a talent or passion for an activity outside school. The student body includes 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!
