Cons
Horrible errors and miscommunications with HQ, specifically Enrollment (lack of documentation People may be qualified for their position but aren't great a the job duties K12 gives them; k12 has an issue with not firing people who do not fulfill their duties Related to above; some supervisors do not monitor their employees' computers to ensure work is getting done but have the ability to do so There is a lack of new hire training Lack of information to all employees about the general operations of our local school(s), especially if you are paid hourly; we would like to be in the know as well
