About the Brooklyn Apple Academy

Brooklyn Apple Academy's mission is to provide a home base for homeschool families to meet up with other homeschoolers and create community. We are place to make friendships, make messes (and clean them up), and use tools and equipment that is difficult to own in small NYC apartments. Our HQ has a kitchen, a woodshop, a library, and a big meeting room with a rather large board game collection.
