About

Learning First Brookline (LFB) is a group of Brookline, Massachusetts residents who came together in 2024 with the mission to maintain and enhance the highest-quality academic opportunities for all students in the Public Schools of Brookline. We first came together following the initiative to de-level 9th grade English at Brookline High School, which at the time was going to be followed by de-leveling of 9th grade physics and math. You can read more about this here.

LFB was formed by 10 founders (by alphabetical order of last name):

  • Justin Abramson

  • Shlomit Azgad-Tromer

  • Devorah Bitran

  • Daniel Braverman

  • Jody Calabro

  • Carey Goldberg

  • Dong Han

  • Tal Kenet

  • Masha Kogan

  • Kara Weiss

The group was then joined by a handful of additional community administrators who prefer not to be named at this point..
