Vantaggi
-Highly supportive environment: robust coaching structures, unit-level and daily-level lesson resources, lots of opportunities to attend professional development -Explicit work on diversity and inclusiveness: frequent conversations in affinity groups and mixed groups about how race impacts our interactions with each other and with our students -Lots of opportunities to provide input -Salary significantly higher than other schools -Committed to constantly making schools better for students and for staff -Desire to keep people happy in their roles, so there are lots of opportunities to move around and find the job that aligns with your personal interests and goals
Svantaggi
-Extremely long days with an inflexible schedule (at least at my school); 55-60 hours/week in school and still requires work outside of school most weeks -While I believe that the structures put in place/requirements on teachers are important for student success, I think some people can find them constraining/stifling
