ASMS is a member of the National Consortium of Secondary STEM Schools (NCSSS). It graduated its first class in 1993.
The school was founded in 1989 as a unique public-private partnership. The Alabama School of Mathematics and Science is part of the state government, while the Alabama School of Mathematics and Science Foundation coordinates private support. It was modeled after the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics and the Louisiana School for Math, Science, and the Arts where students complete their final two or three years of high school focusing on advanced studies in mathematics and the sciences. Although a boarding school, it does not charge for tuition, books, room, or board. The only fees include an annual student activity fee, which covers class trips and other day-to-day activities, along with an enrollment fee (for new students only), a PSAT fee, and a graduation fee. The annual student activity fee was $1,400 for the 2016 - 2017 school year. The school's focus is preparing its students for higher education, and residency is a requirement for all students.ASMS's mascot is a dragon.
