Its small, innovative learning communities – the Academies of Alexandria – are preparing students for college and career opportunities, while delivering a truly personalized learning experience tailored to every student. In addition to the required core curriculum, students are provided with project-based, interdisciplinary learning that gives them “real world” experience and provides connections with local businesses and professionals. State-of-the-art learning labs such as the design/build, innovation garage, CNA health lab, aviation simulator, and culinary arts classrooms give students hands-on, relevant learning experiences.

With more than 180 academic course options, including the Early College program, AAHS is committed to offering a comprehensive approach to post-secondary success. This includes more opportunities to earn college credit than are available at any other high school, all while staying enrolled at AAHS and taking courses on the high school campus.

The Center for Advanced Professional Studies (CAPS) program immerses students in real-world experiences in professional settings. These authentic learning experiences, with local businesses, provide a competitive edge. Students earn high school credit and in some cases, college credit at the same time.

A one-to-one digital learning initiative has provided Chromebook laptops to all students at AAHS.

AAHS is located at 4300 Pioneer Rd. SE in Alexandria.
