Lily Gyorkei's Response:

I am grateful to work at Montague Charter Academy, a school based on continuous collaboration with teachers, students, faculty, parents, and the entire school community. At our school, we believe in a rigorous and thorough program. Teachers spend countless hours creating effective lessons, and through these important discussions, teachers learn from each other.
