Pros
NEI has been a wonderful place to work and a place that provides opportunities for advancement. I came to NEI with five years of leadership experience and within three months, I was promoted to a leadership position. This organization truly sees the worth of all educators and all students. What brightens my heart the most is the intentionality to provide a world class education to all students. This was something I looked for after leaving a previous organization and I watched to ensure the world class education was true. To my shock, it was and it still is! The unique K-12 concept allows for educators to see the benefits of cross-curricular gains. Additionally, the community model allows for students to interact with one another in a non traditional learning environment with flexible seating to stimulate learning.
Cons
Work hours are longer than surrounding schools
