Pros

One of top performing charter schools in Chicago. Teachers are able to instruct students with minimal behavior interruptions. All school decisions are made with input from the entire staff, and keeping in mind what is best for students.

Cons

Poor performers may not always feel pressure to succeed. Teachers are paid less than CPS school teachers.

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.
