Pros

I feel so comfortable with my job teaching at Noble Street in Chicago. My colleagues are some of the most talented teachers I have ever met - everyone is completely committed to the profession of teaching, and focused on improving their practice and sharing their ideas with others. I've never enjoyed collaborating with a team as much as I do with my teams here.

Cons

You have to be comfortable with a little political ambiguity - though I believe that our school's motivations are genuine, sometimes the school is used by others as a political tool to undermine public education.

The leadership team and co-teachers are very welcoming and helpful to newly hired members.

Pros

Decent pay, pretty great benefits, pension,

Cons

Many. No feedback on performance, different noble school allow paras to get summers off, paid/unpaid, must work all summer. It’s so inconsistent. LBS1s at times don’t do their jobs and expect para to lead, yet we don’t get paid for that, prioritize test scores and gpa gaps but not actual learning, all teachers are expected to pass kids at the end of the year. Standards base grading is absolutely hurting these students and their retention in college.
