Amazing, for the RIGHT person!

Pros

You're the right person if you're passionate about helping inner-city kids from Antioch. The leadership at SouthEast was actually amazing, sincerely passionate and dedicated people. The training, while intense, is effective, stuff I think every teacher should at least know about. You will grow here if you want to. Pay for merit! That's a huge plus. Curriculum is provided... but you're gonna have to customize it, or otherwise be given other stuff to do. Doesn't really take off your down time, at least the first year. Three planning periods!!! I had a hard time fitting in, but of course tons of the kids were wonderful. You gotta be ready for the inner-city culture though, which I was not.

Cons

Ask them to describe their culture, their day to day in school, especially stuff like coaching. They won't lie to you-- this place is not for everyone.

Pros

Pay and bonus schedule! 10% raises per year if you meet requirements.

Cons

Work load gets increasingly difficult it seems. You give an inch, they take a mile.
