What Makes Our School Unique?
A.Z. Kelley is the most beautiful school in Nashville with the smartest, most talented and gifted students in the world! These students are surrounded by adults who go above and beyond that which is expected or required of them on a daily basis.
The theme at A.Z. Kelley is teamwork, Vince Lombardi's quotation captures this spirit: "Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team, a company, a society and a civilization work." The A.Z. Kelley family believes if we continue to work as a team, there is nothing we cannot accomplish. It is the expectation at A.Z. Kelley that all students will graduate from high school and attend college.
