Pros

Wonderful students and teaching staff. Also competitive salary.

Cons

I don’t know one teacher who enjoys working here or isn’t trying to actively leave. Leadership is incompetent, micromanaging, and out of touch with the student body. IEPs are written on ChatGPT, students with extra time or in need of extra services go months without them, and blame is always put on the teachers. Horrible retention rate and no safety for teachers or students. They are focused on renewing the charter and everything and everyone is a number for them so they can renew the charter. Equity is at the bottom of their decision making process as a result of this. Students actively dislike the new leadership as well as parents and consistently voice this to teachers who are put in uncomfortable positions. There are many leaders without licenses or any degree in education. There is a clear resentment between staff and leadership and a horrible morale in all the school buildings. The leaders are petty cowards with limited leadership experience and a holier than thou attitude. There is little time to prep and an extreme amount of time given to PDs that do not offer any practical help and take away from important teacher planning. The community would be better off if this charter did not get renewed instead of pretending to offer something better and fooling the community. The local public schools have consistently much better test scores.

Pros

Nice young staff Sometimes given food

Cons

PIPS (performance plan ) given at END OF THE YEAR Allowing staff to remain even after 20 absences Differing opinions Long hours, months, and school year (and the same time as DOE) PD starts early in August. (6) Discrimination and sexism (male teachers are unicorns, don’t bother giving them any consequences)

East Harlem Tutorial Program Response

Thank you for your honest feedback. We're glad to know you’ve felt supported by your peers and appreciated some of the small efforts we make. We also want to acknowledge the concerns you raised around performance evaluations, attendance practices, and staff equity. These are important areas, and we’re taking time to revisit what didn’t go as planned this past year. Our goal is to make thoughtful, meaningful adjustments as we head into the next school year. We hope you’ll continue with us as we move forward on this next phase together. Thank you, East Harlem Tutorial Program

Unsustainable culture with high turnover and favoritism

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

PTO policy is flexible for staff not in schools.

Cons

Unsafe learning environments that the org spends overtime to cover up. High turnover. A lot of the data they report about test scores does not tell the full story. A lot of favoritism. Senior leaders treat everyone like they are disposable if you do not serve their narratives. No positive culture. Staff are very unhappy. Principals are unqualified.

East Harlem Tutorial Program Response

Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. We really appreciate hearing from our staff in order to understand what changes we need to make as an organization to improve. We always want our employees to feel seen and heard. If you would like to provide more details, please email jobs@ehtp.org. Thank you, East Harlem Tutorial Program

Pros

they sometimes give you free bagels

Cons

sexism (male colleagues make more than female colleagues who are more qualitfied!), racism, ableism, students can threaten to shoot teachers with a gun and remain in the classroom with a slap on the wrist, using chat gpt to create IEP documents, not offering a single middle school staff member a contract back after they complained about workplace safety issues

East Harlem Tutorial Program Response

Thank you for your feedback. The issues you’ve described are concerning, and we take them seriously. Allegations around inequity, safety, and discrimination have no place in any school community. While we can’t speak to individual cases publicly, we want to be clear that we are reviewing the challenges from this past year and making significant changes to create a safer, more inclusive, and more supportive environment for both students and staff. We’re committed to doing better, and if you’re willing to share more about your experience, we invite you to reach out directly at jobs@ehtp.org Thank you, East Harlem Tutorial Program

Pros

The students and families are the only pros.

Cons

The CEO and senior staff do not have a clue about what is going on. Staff are given the bare minimum and are always struggling. Always high turnover. Every single day is stressful. The same issues come up all the time. People always point fingers and nothing gets done.

Pros

The students and their families. The staff was the best staff I have ever worked with.

Cons

Everything not listed in Pros. Admin hides in their offices. Students threaten teachers and other students and nothing happens to them, so teachers quit. Students are used to the turnover, yet the CSO and CEO are not asking the right questions as to why.
