Pros

Colleagues very supportive of one another. Many involved families…. Strong legacy… Respectful climate in classrooms.

Cons

Most staff are afraid of the director. She does not authentically ask for input and she intimates others. Very high turnover. Mediocre pay. In my 3 yrs MANY outstanding folks have left. Facilities aren’t great because they take over existing buildings so there is not enough space.

Pros

Large classrooms, collaborative structure across grade levels for teachers, nice stipend for buying classroom materials

Cons

Very conflicting information from different levels of administration, high burnout rate, major lack of subs due to a high number of mid-year resignations. All intervention staff have been forced to shut down their pull-out groups in order to cover for teachers who are sick. Employees get major guilt and negativity when they request a day off. Executive director is a lot of talk, saying the school is doing X, Y, and Z, but a lot of it lacks follow through. Executive director does not treat employees with respect. Students are not getting the support they need.
