Congratulations Rita, Rachel, Vanessa, Kevin, Max, Tina-Marie, Robby and Anna on completing 26.2 miles this Sunday during the NYC Marathon!

At AF, we can teach AND run. Check out our photos from the Brooklyn Half Marathon -- http://www.kodakgallery.com/gallery/creativeapps/slideShow/Main.jsp?token=199331434114%3A1819202059

At the beginning of each year, our new teachers and school leaders spend about three weeks as a network and then in their individual schools learning about the AF approach, working with their peers and preparing for a year of high student achievement.
