      So Much Potential But Students and Staff Suffer due to Poor Leadership/Administration

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      The freedom to build our own curriculum to teach in a way that is relevant to the children vs. just teaching from a forced curriculum without the ability to adjust to our classroom's needs. The intent of good team practices and team building is present (just not delivered upon.)

      Cons

      The school is run by a 'board' that is out of touch Teachers are literally afraid of the school leadership (sometimes job loss is implied as a way to get consensus) Teachers are now being 'forced' to visit students homes There is no real discipline for unruly children (hitting, vandalism) for fear of losing funding if a child is suspended/expelled. 80 hour work weeks are expected

      Nice staff and decent pay for non-intensive work, but the mental toll of struggling students can be exhausting

      Pros

      Good pay for a W.S. Student Hours are alright Work isn't very intensive Friendly staff

      Cons

      Must fit into the school schedule, so university may impede ability to work Mental toll of watching children struggle with basic academic topics Role is less of a tutor, and more of a teaching aid - may need to take charge of class, or act as a monitor during extracurriculars Student body is not too well behaved
