The Alabama School of Mathematics and Science (ASMS) is a public residential high school focused on advanced studies in math, science, and the humanities for motivated sophomores through seniors. Founded by the Alabama State Legislature in 1989, it aims to prepare Alabama’s future leaders in STEM fields and to provide access to rigorous education for students from across the state who may not have local opportunities. Located in Mobile, the school serves a diverse urban area and draws candidates from all 67 counties in Alabama. ASMS operates within the primary and secondary education sector as a specialized institution offering a college-preparatory program tailored to high-achieving students. Recent activities include a partnership to launch weather balloons from its Midtown Mobile campus and programs such as free online ACT prep and a STEM-focused summer camp, reflecting ongoing efforts to broaden access to advanced academic resources and experiential learning.
