Pros

Strong adult culture. Schools are actually closing the achievement gap in Brooklyn.

Cons

As a veteran teacher, the work life balance is reasonable. However, some newer teachers at my school feel overwhelmed. They do receive lots of support to help out with finding the balance best for them.

Hi there, thanks for taking the time to provide a review of AF. It’s motivating to hear that your school is not only a great place to work as an adult but also a place that is seeing real academic gains for scholars. This work can feel impossible and overwhelming at times (like you mentioned!) but we hope you’ve seen that the unparalleled support and coaching we provide for teachers makes it worth doing what we do. I appreciate you sharing your viewpoint and hope you have a solid finish to the school year. -Tom Kaiser, Chief Talent Officer
