“I chose to come back to an Alliance School as a Student Government Teacher, PE teacher and volleyball coach because of one of my inspirational teachers. I choose to stay because we continue the legacy of great teachers by helping each and every single scholar. Our small class sizes allow us to build relationships so we know right away if someone is struggling and we pause to find out what support each child needs.”

“My son commutes two hours every morning from Appley Valley. He wakes up at 3:30 am daily because Tenn Tech educators really make a difference. Ms. Albarran is a counselor who helped my older son get into Stanford and is currently supporting my son, Axel 1,000%. My child looks forward to school every day, excited to explore new ideas in such a supportive and vibrant environment.”

“My friends and I met in middle school and decided to come to this school. Our friendship has gotten stronger over the years. Being part of a small school makes it easier to build great relationships. Last year, we all signed up for our film class and even though some of us were writers and producers, our small class size allowed us to collaborate closely all year."
