School Notes Overview: |
At Albuquerque Academy, we believe that children's lives change when their natural passion for learning is nurtured and transformed into habits of life-long learning and reflection. We believe that the world changes as these children learn to serve country and community with wisdom, conviction, and compassion. In light of these beliefs we serve students of talent and character, offering them an education that broadens their perspectives, sharpens their minds, strengthens their bodies, and engages their hearts; we commit to creating a caring, inclusive, and just community, using the geography and culture of our home in the Southwest to enrich our educational programs and to foster creativity, personal balance, and a connection to the natural world; we devote our resources to ensure economic accessibility to our students and to support the wider community through outreach and community service; and we entrust this mission to our graduates and successors as we preserve our resources and serve the generations of children to come.
