Founded in 1886 in Madisonville, Texas, Allen Academy is the oldest non-religious private school in Texas and serves 358 students in Pre-K through 12th grade. As an independent, co-educational day and boarding school, Allen Academy offers an outstanding educational experience and rigorous college preparatory curriculum that integrates academics, artistic expression, athletics, and community service in a positive atmosphere. Allen Academy faculty and families work together to ensure that students are equipped with the skills and attitudes necessary to inherit a world that promises to be increasingly unpredictable. Allen Academy traces its beginnings to Madison Academy, founded by Mississippians John H. and Rivers O. Allen in Madisonville, Texas, in 1886. Founded as an elementary and secondary school for boys and girls, it became Madison College in 1895 and then Allen Academy in 1896. The Allen brothers moved their school to Bryan because of the town's growing rail connections, its central location between Houston, Waco, Dallas, and Austin. They envisioned their school becoming a preparatory school for the Texas Agricultural and Mechanical College. Several prominent citizens of Bryan encouraged the move and helped establish Allen Academy as a boarding school for boys in 1899. The school quickly earned a reputation as an outstanding college preparatory school. Allen Academy cultivates the skills and attitudes that characterize adaptive expertise. It equips students with the mindset necessary for academic success, preparation for life, and meaningful contribution to their local, college, and global communities. At Allen Academy, we value differences and believe an inclusive environment fosters deeper learning. We seize life's teachable moments to capitalize on authentic learning opportunities. We empower our students to share their voices, and we strive to cultivate an academic and social environment where diverse thoughts, ideas, and perspectives are respected. We seek harmony beyond tolerance. Allen Academy welcomes the unique life story each person contributes to our community. At its essence, adaptive expertise is the combination of skillsets and mindsets that are necessary not only to face but thrive in an increasingly uncertain and interconnected future. It's a model built on an intentionally intimate scale. It's about developing self through meaningful relationships, building necessary skills, and consistently promoting grit, self-awareness, and a growth mindset as well as the importance of challenging assumptions and taking risks. At Allen, we promote and celebrate the tenets of adaptive expertise in an intellectual environment.

The end of that conflict saw significant expansion of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in the former Confederate States. Allen University grew out of the church's desire to educate newly freed slaves and to ensure a well-trained clergy for the African Methodist Episcopal Church. The Right Revered John Mifflin Brown and the assembled clergy of the Columbia District of the AME Church, on July 29, 1870, agreed to raise funds to purchase a 150-acre farm in Cokesbury, South Carolina. They did so in hopes of locating a school there that would be the "FIRST INSTITUTION OF LEARNING CONSECRATED TO NEGRO SELF ACTIVITY AND NEGRO MANHOOD," in the state of South Carolina. Allen University's initial mission included the education of students at all levels and ages. The University offered not only degrees in law, theology, and arts, but included elementary and high school courses of study. At that time, one could enter Allen University as a child in the first grade and leave prepared to teach, preach, or plead in the courts. The grammar school was discontinued in the mid-twenties, and the high school was closed after the graduation of the class of 1933. The University only accepted those who had completed high school for the 1929-33 school term. Allen University celebrated its centennial year in 1970, thus closing a century of fulfilling its educational mission. The institution, founded in 1870 by former slaves, still provides undergraduate education with a firm commitment to teaching, research and community service, undergirded by the faith expressed in the motto of the African Methodist Episcopal Church: "God our Father, Christ our Redeemer, Man, our brother." Allen University celebrates each year with a renewed commitment to preparing its students to meet the challenges of this century. That commitment is reflected in the University's attainment and maintenance of accreditation to award the baccalaureate degree by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and its accepted membership in the UNCF (United Negro College Fund). The University remains faithful to its founders' dreams and historic mission and purpose, as expressed in its motto, "We teach the mind to think, the hands to work, and the heart to love."- Founded in 1886 in Madisonville, Texas, Allen Academy is the oldest non-religious private school in Texas and serves 358 students in Pre-K through 12th grade.
