Alabama's STEM Legacy High School since 1989
ASMS has been providing an advanced education in math, science, and the humanities dating back to 1989 before "STEM" was ever a buzzword or an official paradigm in education. Nestled in Mobile's beautiful Old Dauphin Way Historic District, ASMS was founded by the Alabama State Legislature to better prepare Alabama's future leaders.
The ASMS Model: Public Education, Advanced Academics, Fully Residential
When we think about school choice for Alabamians, ASMS is a life-changing option for students. The conversation about school choice ultimately goes back to answering the question: “What works in education in Alabama?” We answer the question like this: The ASMS model is what works.
History of ASMS
In the late 1980s, a group of concerned citizens banded together in Mobile to develop an advanced high school that could draw students from across the entire state.
