Educators Beware - Aassessment and Accountability Manager Element Education Employee Review

Pros

Truly, there are none to speak of.

Cons

All employees are at-will and at the discretion of the CEO/Superintendent, Terri Novacek. Disagree with her, and risk losing your job. I was terminated after making a report to child protective services after my own child alleged sexual assault in her TK classroom at Community Montessori (one of Element’s two schools). The teachers, administrators, and support staff are all beholden to her will. Working at Element entails abandoning your moral compass, disregarding or manipulating Ed Code, a toxic work environment, deplorable health benefits, no consideration for staff ADA accommodations, and rock bottom pay per industry standards.
