Pros
Solid starting pay Good insurance for employee and family Most kids are well behaved and a few are quite intelligent
Cons
Low morale Micromanagement (cameras in classrooms) Unspoken Schedules: You will not be made aware of the mandatory late days or mandatory early days Pointless meetings Positional leadership as opposed to actual leadership Terminations in June without summer pay Won’t pay out bonus if you leave even after finishing the school year, you will have to take legal action to recover Your have to walk on eggshells around most leadership No autonomy No professional development. PDs are meetings for them to talk at you not grow you. They do not model best practices. Students grades aren’t real. You’re forced to have only a certain percentage of failing even students are truly failing: Red, Yellow, Green They have a minimum grade of 70 so grades are inflated due to you being forced to have most students past. Students who are not well behaved have no real consequences Every aspect of their numbers are for show, department meetings are weekly and it’s a meeting to tell you to fix the grades and where else you will have to do that wasn’t in your contract
