School Mission
"The mission of Ann Arbor Learning Community is to nurture independent learners as they acquire the tools they need to shape an environmentally and socially responsible future. Furthermore, in a supportive, student-centered community that appreciates uniqueness, AALC helps students develop a strong sense of self and lifetime love of learning. The school fosters the development of essential life skills and core academic knowledge through small, multi-aged classrooms that honor the learning and creative strengths of each student."
Extracurricular Activities
Ann Arbor Learning Community does not offer any sports teams, although girls can choose to participate in Girls on the Run. Intermediate and middle school students may also join an after school history club with the goal of participating in the Michigan History Day and National History Day competitions. In the 2011-2012 school year, two middle school students from Ann Arbor Learning Community advanced to the national level of competition and another was named an alternate.
