Pros

Schools are beautiful, well-maintained. Teachers are committed and want to do what is best for kids. Good leadership at my school.

Cons

Too focused on control of kids, used a punitive point system to manage behavior. Teachers have little freedom, most lessons are pre-scripted. Testing, testing, testing, assessment took away instructional time.

Pros

If lucky enough to get on a team with a manager that actually knows how to manage, you will always have someone in your corner.

Cons

Pretty much everything else. KIPP DC exploits their employees and uses the "team and family" tag line to overwork employees and underdeliver on promises and compensation. Leadership advocates for mental health days but does nothing to give employees the tools to take them out of fear of falling behind and failing kids.
