The mark consists of a stylized crest design. At the top of the crest, there is an open book with three five-pointed stars above it, all outlined in gold. The book appears in white with blue shading at the top edge, suggesting pages. Below the book, there is a prominent shield that occupies the majority of the crest. The shield is gold with the stylized letters "AFA" in blue, set in a serif font. Surrounding the shield are two symmetrical laurel branches in green, with a detailed pattern of leaves and small blue flowers. The branches meet at the bottom of the shield where they are tied together with a blue ribbon. The entire design is set against a solid light blue background.
