- Coordinators are not up front about what the job actually entails.
- You are paid as much as a McDonald's employee.
- HR can cut your benefits, even after you sign the contract (which they did this year).
- You're ACTUALLY paid less than the janitor.
- Coordinators expect you to be putting in 2-4 hours each day at home.
- You are expected to work as much, if not more, than teachers but you are not given the same respect by administration.
- You get a 25 minute lunch break all day.
- You get 1 planning period (teachers get 2), but coordinators like to use this time to give you extra work.
- You are not RESPECTED by Administration nor your Blueprint Coordinator. They do not have your back, nor your best interest at hear. EX. One of my fellow colleagues needed to miss an after school meeting to register her car, and was told she was not allowed to (as if she needed to ask permission). She received a ticket the following weekend but no apology from the Blueprint coordinator who made her cancel her appointment.
- I would NEVER advise anyone to take on this job, even if your love kids and want to teach, because the pay is not sustainable, and your employer will squeeze out every last drop of energy you have until you have none left for your kids who need you.
