Pros

Lots of positions available and leadership is willing to let you try new positions and ideas

Cons

There are high expectations for lesson plans that don’t match up with the situation in the classroom. Class sizes are very large (over 30 students is regular; I’ve had as many as 38) and most students are below grade level so there is simply too much work to be done.

Pros

None, there are no pros.

Cons

No structure Worst environment for the poor, underpaid and overworked staff. Typical “pizza party” employers. No work/life balance, PTO cannot be accrued yet we were expected to be present all school year long. Low pay and no clear job descriptions. Constantly hired people that were not qualified to teach. Paraprofessionals with no kind of teaching degree, would end up substituting classes for months at a time and parents were given the run around when they’d find out about the teacher quitting. SPED department was a complete joke, setting up scholars with disabilities for failure. Zero support for them available on campus. Administration lied to parents constantly, told them what they wanted to hear but would push the scholar out of the school and dress it up as “a transfer”. HR department was not consistent. So glad I got out of there, I wouldn’t recommend this employer to anyone.
