It has been consistently ranked as among the top high schools in the United States, as well as the #1 school in the state of <a href="/facts/New_Hampshire/DljxSg3H">New Hampshire</a>. ASD concentrates on providing a <a href="/facts/Science%2c_technology%2c_engineering%2c_and_mathematics/NAsAI1nG">STEM</a>-based education. The academy is tuition-free for New Hampshire residents. However, the limited space available for new students makes a lottery system necessary. All applicants who are eligible for the lottery (who completed the application requirements by the deadline) are drawn and this order is used to create the waiting list each year. The school is physically located in Nashua, but is a New Hampshire public school and all New Hampshire students are eligible to apply for enrollment. Nashua students are not given priority over students from any other New Hampshire towns.
</p><p>ASD opened in September 2007 and is currently serving 525 students from over 40 New Hampshire communities in grades 5 through 12. The academy offers a science, technology, engineering and math oriented curriculum beginning with algebra, integrated biology and chemistry, and physics in grade 7.
