Our Mission & Philosophy
Armenian Sisters Academy is an independent Christian Armenian day school serving students from Pre-K through 8th grade. Since 1967, ASA has provided a rigorous and nurturing educational experience rooted in academic excellence, Christian values, and Armenian heritage.
As the first Armenian day school of its kind in the region, ASA offers a comprehensive accredited curriculum that challenges students academically while supporting their personal, spiritual, and social growth. Students develop strong foundations in core subjects while also exploring Armenian language, history, and culture in meaningful and engaging ways.
Our early childhood program incorporates the Montessori Method in Pre-K and Kindergarten, fostering independence, curiosity, creativity, and confidence during a child’s most formative years. Montessori-inspired principles continue throughout the elementary and middle school experience, encouraging hands-on learning, critical thinking, and self-motivation.
At ASA, students learn in a safe, supportive, and close-knit community where every child is known, valued, and encouraged to reach their full potential. Small class sizes allow teachers to provide individualized attention while building meaningful relationships with students and families.
Rooted in Christian values, ASA strives to cultivate compassionate, respectful, and confident young leaders who are prepared for success both inside and outside the classroom.
