Pros

Challenger School has a great curriculum. The children learn so much academically and come out of there with more knowledge than any other school in the state.

Cons

The administration works you to death. There is never anytime for any home life, because you are working at home all the time on the weekends. Also when working at school be a little nicer to your staff and listen to them once in awhile.

Pros

The compensation is great, the benefits are irreplaceable, the management is very respectful and careful when speaking with me. I feel like I am a cherished employee; all they expect is honest, hard workers and the management will be very nice.

Cons

It's hard to think of some, but the con is that they have a book on behavior management and craft projects and they want you to do everything from the book...so sometimes when i want to just be creative with a craft its not possible because they want it from their book. Also if you read stories from home, they don't like that. Everything has to be the 'challenger way' which seems kind of rigid at times, but its not too bad.
