Pros

Everyone is really understanding, laid back, and passionate about their work. Everyone wants to be there! There is a real focus on the students understanding why something is right or wrong and how the world works

Cons

There aren't many cons- sometimes the kids can get away with a little too much. The parents are usually very involved and sometimes that can be a little tough.

Pros

- Many opportunities for school-funded professional development - Very diverse faculty and staff - Social Justice mission - Teacher Autonomy

Cons

- Lots of turnovers at School Leadership level (lower school principal role changed 4 times within 5 years) - Salary structure is improving in terms of transparency and equity; some have "grandfathered" into higher salaries than are currently instated (salary negotiation is not possible for teaching positions) - If you have children, tuition is not free or at a fixed discount. You must follow the regular Financial Aid process; based on income - Not many opportunities for teacher career advancement with pay increases. Possible to "take on more," less likely to have salary increased or job title "upgraded" - School leadership is very out of touch with the "pulse" of the educators; huge divide between leadership and employees who are directly student-facing
