Show Your APA Teacher You Care

$80/month per pupil will close the teacher funding gap between APA and local public schools

APA has incredible teachers that are the backbone of our school and help our students strive for excellence. Research shows that the most important factor affecting student learning is their teacher.

When students are placed with a high performing teacher three years in a row, gains in student achievement are significant. Not only does a superstar teacher improve student learning, but their influence also improves the chance the student will attend college.

What Makes APA Different

APA offers an innovative small group learning experience. This requires more teachers in the classroom and it reaps extraordinary results, such as our Best High Schools U.S. News ranking. This requires a higher investment in resources than traditional institutions. 

Why does APA need my help?

 
  • Local school districts receive much more money per student than APA
  • APA can’t raise property taxes in order to compete, our only option is to turn to our families
  • The wealthiest school districts are waging a price war for our best teachers

Our teachers love and embrace APA’s approach to the learning experience, but salary is still a significant factor in where the best teachers choose to work.
