Albemarle Foundation for Education

We support and celebrate the development of students, prioritize opportunities that align with the ACPS strategic goals and seek to address systemic barriers to academic success.

We support and celebrate teachers and staff, both in their growth as professionals and their well-being and satisfaction with their work. While the AFE exists to ensure the success of each student, we deeply value the vital role teachers and staff play in this work.

We look for bold ideas and support innovative educational programs and activities that would not otherwise be funded by the school system. By measuring the effectiveness of these efforts, we help ACPS scale new initiatives that show promise.

We believe that families, students, teachers, staff and the community should work in partnership to support the division's educational efforts. We aim to foster community involvement and collaboration in pursuit of our mission.
