K12 reviews

There are too many administrative duties handed over to teachers. There is no autonomy for teachers. Administration can be very pushy with the many daily tasks. You will need a second job to survive financially here. The administrators make teaching for K12 a very stressful job. Teachers who are unfit to be administration are promoted based on relationships in the inner circle of leadership.

-Terrible pay and benefits -Every single person in the Lewisville, TX office is overworked and stressed out. -Too many students for staff (coordinators, registrars, teachers, everyone) to keep up with. One of three schools has over 8,000 students. -Volume of calls and emails so high that no one can keep up and are constantly stressed. -Corporate enrollment center unfamiliar with Texas specific regulations; causes enrollment issues that local office must try to fix. -Enrollment center just wants to reach enrollment number goals--don't care about families. -ZERO support for employees who are parents. They are expected to put in as much overtime as young, single employees. -Overtime is expected. My office was offering nearly 20 hours a week of overtime, and only those who took it were recognized. -Management will listen when you are stressed out, but do not offer any support or suggestions to help you. -I like to put my best foot forward and stay positive, even when I am super stressed. I was chastised and told that my lack of showing my stress indicated that I didn't care about my job.
