Pros

The students are wonderful. Coworkers for the most part are kind and fun to work with. The pay is fine and the benefits are very good.

Cons

KIPP’s set up is flawed from the ground up. They advertise as a school where you will be coached and trained to success, but the managers have too many duties and cannot coach teachers adequately. However, teachers are still expected to meet a standard that they have not been given the tools to reach.

Pros

The teachers work really well together Everyone help each other out

Cons

Administration expects teachers to be guidance counselor, social worker, nurse, and parents to the students. While this is expected at some level, the amount times teachers must play these other roles is not healthy at all.
