Pros

The great team of not only leaders that work at network but also the fabulous team of registrars at the other locations. I have never had this much support and felt so loved while working at a school. The amount of help, encouragement and acknowledgment that I get is AMAZING!!

Cons

Getting the same days off as the scholars do

Pros

We have a uniform Mission and Vision in our campuses that really focus of student success. We are network who recognizes that there will always be challenges, improvements, and growing pains in the journey! Despite any frustration we may face- our common goal allows all of us to work past differences. You might not be best friends with everyone you work with outside of school, but knowing you can have those professional, passionate conversations where you can both offer insight on how to help the students because we know that at the end of the day the student's wellbeing and education is number 1! I have truly never been happier in a job position, and I have worked many different industries haha!

Cons

With the size and capacity of our network it can inherently make it difficult to streamline communication! Though we work diligently to assure we connect on all concerns- it can sometimes leave a feeling of lacking urgency or acknowledgement to candidates or staff, and NO one enjoys feeling unheard!

Red Flags Everywhere

Pros

Opportunity to help inspire kids that need it the most; however, the same could be said about literally any title 1 school.

Cons

Employees without fingerprint clearance cards. Lack of support from principals and deans. Teacher In Residence=lack of safety for kids and a huge detriment to overall success; however, it is a great way for the school to show employee “growth” and retention of staff. Double standards for specials teachers and interventionists beyond the scope of teacher work agreement. Bullying and aggressive targeting from Admin Nepotism/favoritism. Some departments do not have an academic team at a network level. Safety issues not addressed properly. BTW when you resign, there is no convenient ability to access signed documents such as contracts without contacting the school. Make sure that you screenshot/download everything onto your own hard drive.
