Our program is based on the following Five Pillars:

CHARACTER AND SERVICE

The school will instill in students the character traits of integrity, honesty, trustworthiness, self-discipline, kindness, respect and responsibility. These traits will result in a commitment of service to the community.

ACADEMIC CHALLENGE

The program will provide challenging instruction at an accelerated pace designed to prepare students for college.

INNOVATIVE INSTRUCTION

Teachers will provide engaging instruction designed to inspire and motivate students toward independent learning. Strategies will incorporate movement, music, individual technology and the arts to provide students with the most exciting educational experience offered in a public school.

LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT

Participating students will be trained for current and future leadership roles. Students will have individual and collective responsibility for their behavior, service and learning. Opportunities to host visitors, act as mentors and serve as ambassadors for the program will be available and expected for all students.

EFFORT AND COMMITMENT

The Allen Jay program is not for everyone; students must commit to the challenge of working hard to achieve success. Parents are expected to be active partners by both holding their student accountable and serving in the school program.
