Pros

The kids are amazing to work with, and the parents are very supportive. Small classes are huge perk. In many ways, this is what teaching is supposed to be like. The pay is pretty good. It's on par with the local ISDs and more than most charter schools.

Cons

Leadership at the top is toxic. The head of school rules with an iron fist, and all the other admin just go along with it because no one wants to jeopardize their own employment. The result is an admin team that is not supportive of their teachers and is incredibly condescending to the kids. Turnover is between 20% and 30% each year. That stat speaks for itself. Happy teachers don't leave.

Pros

Students and families are awesome. Many teachers are kind. There are extended breaks over the school year.

Cons

Administration is the main downfall. Appearance and funds are prioritized over supporting teachers. Favoritism is shown amongst staff, and students who are more well-off get away with behavioral issues that others don't. Admin spends little to no time seeing what goes on in classrooms, and will then demean and blatantly disrespect you, oftentimes in front of colleagues. If HoS does not like you, she will impose unnecessarily punitive measures upon you with no end goal in mind. Facility is extremely lacking. No cafeteria for students. Teachers are required to share classrooms. Little to no diversity.
