Vantaggi
The students are incredible and deserve more than what they're getting here.
Svantaggi
They hire people with 0 experience as administrators, rarely hiring from within. They're ineffective, unethical leaders who focus not on what teachers and students really need, but on what will make their attendance LOOK high so that they can earn more money and stay in the news. Nobody is ever on the same page; administrators have little communication with their employees unless they are reprimanding them for something or implenenting some sweeping change out of the blue. Many of these administrators arrive late to work if they show up at all. The employee turnover rate is high because they disrespect and undervalue their veteran employees and often move them to new sites with no warning (more often than not, the teacher finds out about this move after returning from a school break). Most employees that have been around for 4+ years are only doing so to keep the healthcare and HRA. Speaking of healthcare, the HR team signed everyone up for a sham health insurance company to save money. The insurance company went under at the beginning of the year and they frantically had to search for a new insurance company in March. The fact that they tried to sign us up for something so cheap makes me wonder if the HRA and good insurance will even last. This, coupled with the fact that everyone's pay was inaccurate for the first few months of the school year make it obvious that they placed rookies into top HR management positions after their seasoned, competent HR team members quit. I really doubt if this school will still be in existence in 10 years. The students are unhappy, the teachers are unhappy, and leadership is shady.
