A Whatever it Takes Kind of Spirit
Every person on our team is all-in for every student and each other.
Growth Mindset
Becoming a great teacher doesn’t happen overnight. It takes continuous practice, feedback, and a commitment to personal growth.
Having a growth mindset is a non-negotiable at BA.
Team-Based Problem Solving
Rather than operate in silos, our administrative team and faculty work together to develop solutions, best practices, and new approaches to everything from operations and curriculum to schedules and discipline.
Coaching
Our teachers receive real-time, customized coaching via weekly observations and one-on-one sessions with trained coaches.
Professional Development
Our teachers engage in 20+ days of formal professional development annually and hone their craft through regular, reflective discussions about their teaching experiences.
Balance
Because serving the needs of our target audience of at-risk students can be emotionally, physically, and psychologically taxing, our year-round academic calendar gives teachers an opportunity to disconnect during interims, vacation midseason, and refresh and recalibrate in order to stay balanced, focused, and energized.
You know an excellent teacher and administrator when you see one.
