Adam J. Lewis Academy was founded in memory of Adam Lewis, who died in the World Trade Center on 9/11. Adam’s life was enhanced by hard work, perseverance, and an educational opportunity provided to him at a very young age.
It is the intention of the AJLA founders to give children in Bridgeport the same life-changing opportunity that Adam had, in a vibrant and exciting environment.

The Lewis Family and Hamilton College Football honor Adam on the 15th anniversary of 9/11.
