Pros

Annual bonus plus salary increase

Cons

Punitive arbitrary time-off policy with no separate sick days (10 days PTO total). Teachers are not allowed to print or use paper. Classroom facilities minimal, supplies meager. No allowance for supplies. Huge amount of paperwork to complete every week outside of school hours. Poor communication from administration. Inadequate school discipline; no consequences for bad student behavior. Long days and short lunch periods. Chaotic..admin seems to be making it up they go along.

Pros

Tech conscious, students get to explore passions in their majors, teachers are relatively free to teach what curriculum they want and there is common PLC time every week with academic teams

Cons

Long adjustment period as new teacher to school; lots of new policies to get used to (no paper, intense requirements when it comes to lesson plans and professional responsibilities) This was especially true when there was no prior curriculum provided Low accountability for students — lots of class cutting that goes unchecked (hoping it’s better this year with new admin) Decisions made by CEO and charter school admin not always clear and doesn’t always have students’ or teachers’ best interests or wants/needs in mind A lot happens behind closed doors, and most decisions seem to be made with that image in mind and giving the illusion that this is a well put together school with lots of money… but the projects that get the most money are gate kept and it’s hard to figure out what actually gets funded and why
