Pros

The school is brand new and has some interactive technology for students. Most of the staff members are a pleasure to work with and the students, in spite of their challenges, are adored by everyone.

Cons

This school has several major problems working against it's ability to be successful. The health and safety of staff is not a priority at this school. Considering there is a high likelihood of injury, working with the population this school serves, injuries are dealt with a lackadaisical attitude. The school does not have a full-time nurse on staff to treat student or staff injuries, which are relatively frequent. Also, when an injury occurs, staff members are offered sub par medical assistance from urgent care centers that are more concerned with clearing staff to return to work than treating their injuries. The pay is also not commensurate with experience or schooling. But most importantly, the management of the school lacks leadership and offers no real training in any of the skills necessary to effectively instruct students. Due to these issues, staff members, both teachers and educational assistants, have been leaving this school with a high rate of turnover.
