Amazing vision (past), extremely poor execution (present + likely future) - Specialist Khan Lab School Employee Review

Dear Anonymous, KLS is deeply committed to our founding vision of providing our students with a mixed-age, mastery-based lab school—and to sharing this model beyond our own campus. We are a young, innovative school that is, by nature, open to change, as we assess what we do and iterate upon what works best. We value your critical feedback—and also value the positive feedback we receive regularly. At times a lab school approach can be challenging for our team. The impact of our programming is best measured in our students who are thriving as they learn in real-world contexts, take agency in their own learning, and build relationships with their teachers. We know how important teachers are to our community, and our administration is currently focused on strengthening our efforts in teacher fit, on-boarding, support, and retention. We appreciate your service to our school and regret your individual experience. But we are also grateful to have a strong pipeline of incoming talent who will support our school in growing and thriving into the future. Best, Rachel Skiffer
