Pros

-Children are amazing and families are so supportive. -Robust, individualized coaching and feedback for teachers -Learn a lot of transferable skills that can help you in other settings -Competitive salary for first year teachers (comparable to other charter schools in the area)

Cons

-Rigid behavior management expectations for the children and not always developmentally appropriate (high emphasis on body control) -Teachers graded very harshly whether kids are "on task" based on the rigid set of expectations set forth by the administration and network as a whole -Much of the curriculum and lesson plans are outdated so teachers constantly have to modify them to be more age appropriate and relevant for the scholars we serve. -Feels like a very cliquey and toxic workplace environment
