Pros

In my years at KIPP DC, I've always worked with the absolute best, most committed people across all roles and levels of the organization. The team cares deeply about students and the mission. There are ample resources, development opportunities, and opportunities to innovate.

Cons

The work is challenging and requires a significant commitment from staff. Expectations are high across the team.

Pros

School schedule with summers off, never pulled in to substitute teach when staff call off, supportive principal, great collaboration with related service providers, good work/life balance

Cons

Needs of caseload can feel heavy at times, parent involvement is a hit or miss, not a con but some students have high level behavioral needs - physical aggression, self-injurious behaviors, property destruction, etc.
