Pros
I have been at Zeta for almost a year now, and as someone who came from a different charter school network, my experience has been so refreshing and joyful. Classroom dynamics are grounded in love and play, while still focused on high standards of academic excellence. The same applies to the adult work culture. I have felt supported in developing my learning, loving classroom, and resources are always offered so we can facilitate curriculum best for students. Leadership also collaborates with educators in positive, nourishing ways so that we all feel aligned and prepared to go after winning outcomes. And, Zeta offers programs for teachers beginning their career in education, which I have found to be manageable and engaging. I look forward to continuing my journey here at Zeta, and I recommend this experience to any NYC-based educator!
Cons
Zeta is a growing charter school network, so they do not have as many locations (yet!) Therefore, commute may be long.
