Remote Learning

​Our school has been working hard to design remote learning plans that will provide our students with high-quality learning opportunities. Students are required to participate in remote learning. To view our remote learning plan, please check here. 

​E-cigarettes and Vaping Products

Please remember:
  • Use of vaping devices, vaping liquids, or tobacco-related products are strictly prohibited on school property. Consequences for violating this rule are detailed in the Student Rights and Responsibilities.
  • It is illegal for anyone under 21 in Illinois to buy e-cigarettes or any tobacco-related products.
  • The nicotine in vaping devices is highly addictive and particularly dangerous for teenagers. Because the teenage brain is still developing, nicotine exposure can permanently harm the brain; cause mood disorders; and negatively affect attention, learning, memory, and impulse control.
  • You can watch for the symptoms of lung injury from e-cigarette use, which include cough, shortness of breath, chest pain, nausea, and vomiting. Seek medical care for any health concerns immediately.

For more information, please check here.

Shaping Cultural & Academic Dimension In Tomorrow's Leaders

APMA molds students to embrace cultural diversity as a means to unify rather than divide, empowering them to be leaders in their future roles as global citizens. Our students are catalysts of change.. so diverse that they speak over 40 different languages.

APMA is a Level 1+ school. Here, a rigorous curriculum is integrated that utilizes the most innovative methodologies in teaching and learning by using up-to-date best practices that are research-based. But we don’t just focus on academics.  Equal attention is given to our student’s social and emotional development as they transition from childhood into adulthood.

APMA provides differentiated, authentic instruction where students use real-world experiences to encourage their natural gifts of inquiry and investigation.

With all of these models in place, students are optimally prepared for high school, college and beyond.
