Located near the heart of Chandler, Arizona, Andersen Junior High School (AJHS) represents the best of everything that Chandler has to offer. Andersen student and staff population represent a world of ethnic and racial groups, a diversity of languages and cultures, and a community of learners from every walk of life. John M. Andersen made a difference to this community when he donated his land to build our school, and AJHS Staff are committed to carry on his legacy by working to make a difference in the lives of students and in the community at large. They strive to help students take control of their own academic success, to become a source of strength to their families, and to benefit the general welfare of their own community.
