Pros

Compensation is slightly higher than the school district. Ability to form strong relationships with students and families.

Cons

Administration mistreats staff. Clear lack of trust between leadership team and teachers. Invest more in development of novice teachers, which requires a more experienced leadership team. Zero work/life balance between extended school day, week, and year. Overall, a negative and somewhat toxic work environment.
