Achievement First proudly serves thousands of students across Brooklyn and Queens—and we’re raising our voices to ensure that all NYC families and students have access to the great schools they deserve.
As our CEO Lisa Margosian shared with @chalkbeatorg this week: "We need to lift up our heads and make sure people are aware of what we’re doing.”
That’s why this Thursday, September 18, AF will join public charter schools and families from across the city at Cadman Plaza for the March for Excellence. Together, we’ll cross the Brooklyn Bridge to City Hall to celebrate our impact and stand united for the 150,000 charter students in NYC whose voices and futures matter.

Here’s a peek into how Achievement First does back to school! Over these last few days, our families showed up ready to have a great time and celebrate the start of a new school year together.
From face painting, balloon animals, and a live DJ at Legacy Elementary in Queens, to bouncy houses, delicious food, and family fun at Bridgeport Elementary in Connecticut, to games, dancing, and school spirit at Amistad Elementary in New Haven, our communities came together to kick off the new school year with love and excitement.
