My child has been at SAAS since 6th grade and is now a senior. She was accepted and could have gone to several other top Puget Sound private schools. She has remained At SAAS largely because of its cadre of stellar teachers, and a very involved and student--focused administration. She and many of her friends are very academically oriented, national merit scholarship 'material' and are being challenged. The school also serves capable students with learning challenges more ably than any other private school, which is a plus. SAAS is not a perfect school...no school is and not every teacher is top notch. but it is a school that inspires kids to take risks and perform to their best ability while at the same time instilling personal responsibility for doing so.
10 things I love about SAAS. 1. The teachers truly care about each student. 2. The music, dance, theatrical and visual arts programs are a bridge to a future filled well rounded interests. 3. The humanities are brought to light with genuine enthusiasm. 4. Math is taught in a clear and relevant way. 5. Science springs from the pages of the text books, with hands on learning, in an energized class room. 6. School is taken out of the class room and into the real world with class trips and retreats. 7. The outdoors and travel programs nurture learning as well as adventure. 8. Sports create camaraderie on the field as well as in school. 9. It s a safe place to be yourself & stretch yourself & learn what you can contribute to the world. 10. SAAS is not just a school, it s a community. - a SAAS grad .
