Pros
Wonderful school admin Remote Much healthier work-life balance than ever possible working in Brick & Mortar
Cons
Horrible pay- if K12 Stride would even attempt to get closer to industry standard or Brick & mortar averages, they would see sooo much less turnover and much more invested staff. You get the level of dedication and effort that you pay for. Constant changes to the structure of how the schools operate make it difficult to keep up with all the systems. Mandatory in-person state testing only applies to some. Stride pays for contractors to support testing sites, but the testing coordinators will still demand school staff come to test sites 3-5 days per week for all 8+ weeks of state testing. Most the contractors sit on couches and do nothing while the regular employees run around doing the testing work AND try to balance all their regular work load. It’s a joke.
