[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is Avenues so controversial in this board?[/quote] The article referenced here is behind a paywall, but the summary will give you the gist. It's a for-profit school that was introduced with an enormous and obnoxious NY Times ad. When it opened, the demand level was high for the relatively small number of available private school spots in the city, and Avenues was touting a shiny new tech-forward school that appealed to certain affluent parents. It seems they didn't really care much about getting education part right, and Avenues never lived up to the hype. https://www.instagram.com/insider/p/DEiYG5fvHaU/when-avenues-the-world-school-opened-in-2012-in-chelsea-it-was-supposed-to-revol/[/quote] Please note that there are multiple people replying here and this is not just one person piling on Avenues.[/quote]
