ASFL is a wonderful school to work in and for students to attend. ASFL has had one of it's teachers awarded teacher of the year in HCS 3 times in the last 10 years and all teachers are dedicated to the best interest of the students. Class sizes are small, students get the opportunity to participate in an extremely wide variety of extracurricular activities even though there are no sports. Adminstration is constantly looking for ways to improve the school. The students are great. They are typical kids, but they have a passion for learning and not just for learning about academics. By the time these kids graduate you can see in them their desire to know what's going on in the world and to understand it on a deep intellectual level. Overall ASFL is one of the best schools in this area and I'm proud to be a member
I would like to state that ASFL is an absolutely wonderful school. If you conduct a longitudinal study of the test scores over the last five years, the data will indicate that the students are making a lot of academic progress. This year the students are in school uniforms and I have observed a definite positive school climate. I understand that because of the high academic standards for the students, there is a long waiting list of parents who want to enroll their children in ASFL.
They have been more concerned with what the children look like not what they are learning. Meanwhile our test scores continue to drop. At one time this was a great school but it has been falling year after year. My children went to this school for 7 years and I pulled them out this year. Very disappointing!
The make-up of ethnic backgrounds at ASFL is wonderful. The more they learn from others the world may one day have peace.
