All ASFC families, teachers and staff are assigned to a Hogwarts-style house on arrival. The four houses compete with each other and members receive colored shirts to show house spirit. Through friendly competition, students learn the importance of teamwork, get to know students from other grade levels, and develop a shared sense of identity within the ASFC community. The program promotes school pride and allows students to interact beyond the usual academic and social circles. By sharing a common goal, students are motivated to work together, help one another and set aside differences.
The school is governed by the ASFC Patronato (Board of Directors), whose members come from diverse professional and community backgrounds. Founding members and volunteers serve as advisers and hold the highest authority for all school efforts that impact the school's profile, mission, vision and overall projection to benefit the local and global community.
