Pros
-Great staff culture -Great leaders, well qualified in MIDDLE-management level -Unique racial equity statement with dedication to the mission felt by ALL staff, not just instructional -School vacations for instructional and non-instructional staff -High community/family involvement
Cons
-Overworked...50-65 hour work week depending on when it's slow (50 hours) or busy (65-70 hours) -Underpaid with very few (if any) perks, i.e. no work from home days, most holidays are days you are required to work -Very little control over your own role, i.e your role can change without your say -Lack of consistency, EXTREMELY high staff turn over rate -Inexperienced leaders, leads to unprofessionalism, pettiness, and immaturity from upper management/school leaders. -Wants to be a data driven network but doesn't take into consideration the input of the data experts -Lack of transparency between school to school and between leaders and their staff -Lack of structure/vision leads to unavoidable late nights and weekend work. -Racial equity is very important for lower level staff but doesn't appear to be prioritized to the senior leaders/school leaders
