Pros

The pay and the students are the reasons to stay at Drew.

Cons

Very unorganized. You would think that the administration would have learned from prior work experiences how a school should be run, but unfortunately, that is not the case here. They lack training and the ability to support teachers in and out of the classroom. They have tried each and every year to do something new, but nothing has stuck. This is one place where there's no accountability for students, that is the reason the graduation rate is just shy of 100%. Because of the school's policies, students have very little to no work ethic. There's been a lot of training on equity and fairness, but the administration has seemed to miss the training sessions. They lack teacher support and are not very visible in the hallways. Administrators disregard and reward bad behavior. There's no room for growth for teachers, as there are the same individuals in all leadership positions. There has also been high turnover of teachers in the classroom.
