Business outlook
Pros
Achievement First strives to close the achievement gap. Teacher receive consistent feedback from their academic coaches, and have opportunities for weekly professional development. Achievement First schools maintain a joyful and rigorous culture both for educators and for students.
Cons
The hours are significantly longer than that of a traditional public school, so maintaining a strong work/life balance can be challenging.
