As an academic leader, you honor teacher independence, provide structures for teams to thrive, set the tone for school culture, drive curriculum excellence, and push for innovation and growth.
You do this complex work every day, with very little support. That’s why the ALF exists, a space where you have a community to lean on.
Through expert guidance, peer mentorship, and access to free professional learning, ALF is here to be your trusted network of independent school leaders.
Get access to free, virtual professional learning opportunities with thought leaders including Jay McTighe, Heidi Hayes Jacobs, Jim Knight, and many more.
Connect with fellow academic leaders at in-person meetups in inspiring venues like the Harvard Club of Boston. Exchange ideas, build relationships, and unwind.
Navigate everyday challenges or big-picture questions through ALF’s online forum, virtual networking sessions, and monthly leadership newsletter.
