My daughter is a recent graduate of AGA. When other schools were shutting down, this school was figuring out how to provide a quality education in the middle of a worldwide pandemic. The teachers and staff at AGA go above and beyond for their students every day, and we were so blessed to have been a part of the school for so many years. Thanks AGA.
