School History
Overview
Brazos Christian School is a nondenominational Pre-K through 12th grade school committed to providing a classical college preparatory curriculum from a Biblical worldview and assisting parents in developing the whole child with a passion for Jesus Christ, a joy for learning, and a lifelong quest for truth, wisdom, and virtue.
Allen Academy is a PK-12th grade Independent School located in Bryan, Texas, close to Texas A&M University.
At Allen, students as young as 3 and 4 years old learn along with students ready to face the intellectual challenge of university life.
The 40-acre campus creates a family-centered atmosphere where children are known by name and challenged to reach their full potential by talented, caring, and professional faculty, staff, coaches, and advisors. Allen is committed to providing a global perspective not only through an independent school curriculum, but through hands-on, intentional learning experiences.
A small, selective boarding program also brings students from across the globe to enhance an environment that values relationships, learning from each other, and preparing students for a world that promises to be increasingly unpredictable. This unique combination of intellectual rigor, learning opportunities, and deep relationships makes Allen unique within the Brazos Valley. It is also the only ISAS accredited school within a 70-mile radius.
