Allen Academy is excited to provide their students with valuable learning experiences as they join together to honor our area’s First Responders. Allen is committed to providing a global perspective not only through an independent school curriculum, but also through hands-on educational experiences. It is an environment that values relationships, learning from each other, and preparing students for a world that promises to be increasingly unpredictable. Allen educates their students to be respectful, dedicated individuals who value opportunities such as First Responder Month where they can recognize others who make a difference while also giving back to their community.
