Do NOT choose this school. The worst hell me and my children ever went through. Homophobic, racist, xenophobic mess and disaster. I would trust the special ed teachers to watch my popcorn cook in the microwave. Disgusting building conditions as well, looks like a prison and is a prison. Do not go to this school, do not recommend this school, do not even LOOK at this school. Absolutely skip it at any and all costs. Plenty of other charter schools and vocational schools that will MUCH better fit any child's needs.

This school is equipped with the most important asset! A principal, teachers and staff who truly care for the kids. Throughout the pandemic they have been amazing in every way possible. Both my kids have been there and we loved every bit of it. The way they turned things around practically overnight at the onset of the pandemic and how they pulled through is something I can only believe because we witnessed it. Through this entire ordeal the school has been a source of comfort for parents and children. The way the teachers worked wonders with new technologies, keeping the kids engaged despite long days in front of a screen is commendable. We are truly thankful for having been at that school for this trying time in our history. I'd recommend the Blackstone elementary and middle schools to anyone!

I was a student here for middle school. I'm so glad I'm gone. worst experience of my life. This school does absolutely nothing about bullying and hires horrible teachers. always put misbehaving students together and they never ever got in trouble for doing anything. the amount of bullying that can be seen here is unimaginable, and teachers and administrators couldve cared less. my friend dealt with an extremely horrible situation (im not sure if it can be discussed here but it's something that can be extremely visible) because of how much she was bullied, I told a counselor and she admitted she noticed but didnt talk to her about it or seem to care. kids vaping in class. racist, homophobic, and sexist students always making fun of people no matter who you are. I had an African american friend who was bullied and called slurs daily and was begging for help from counselors and teachers who heard EVERYTHING, but could have cared even less. Also, I'm white, but literally this entire school is white kids. Like in my entire grade there were 2 kids of a different race and they were always being yelled at and treated differently like what?? Even by the teachers. I used to be an extremely outgoing person but I cant bring myself to talk to anyone because of how I was treated at this school. I was afraid to go every single day and absolutely dreaded every minute. I was bullied so much about my weight and I'm battling with an eating disorder due to students at this school. I hate this school so much. Do NOT enroll your child in this school. I do not reccomend this school at all. Worst experience of my life.

Over the last few years, there has been a very high teacher turnover rate at AFM / JFK School.
