What do we mean by "Look Beyond My Uniform" ?

It might be easy to place Admiral Farragut Academy into the military school stereotype; that of a school for troubled children and teens.  Some parents may have been tempted once or twice to warn their son or daughter of the possibility of military school in order to bring about a change in their behavior and attitude. It is also possible that some military schools' missions are to do exactly that.. but here at Admiral Farragut Academy our mission is much more than that.

Beyond our uniforms, we are...

girls who love science.
boys earning our pilots' licenses.
day students from across town.
and boarding students from across the globe.

We are all part of a community, a family.
We are all preparing for college.
We are all striving for excellence.

We are all just students choosing to be HERE!

So we ASK you, we ENCOURAGE you, we CHALLENGE you to look beyond the stereotypes and see Admiral Farragut Academy for who and what we truly are --- a school that can give your child the opportunity to go beyond the limits and, as Admiral David Farragut said himself, "Full Speed Ahead".
