Vantaggi

KLS was founded with an amazing vision to develop a model that could be used everywhere.

Svantaggi

Over the course of the last 1-1.5 years, the vision has become extremely cloudy and unclear. Management refuses to adequately acknowledge the incredibly high turnover both internally within staff as well as with parents. Too many incredibly talented people have been essentially pushed out of the doors of the school to later be “thrown under the bus” by administrators in team meetings as well as to parents via email. Teachers are not valued, aren't even given a desk to work at, nor are they even attempted to be convinced to stay after expressing frustrations. Some have even been immediately terminated in the middle of the school year after expressing the desire to discuss their last day of employment.

Dear Anonymous, KLS is deeply committed to our founding vision of providing our students with a mixed-age, mastery-based lab school—and to sharing this model beyond our own campus. We are a young, innovative school that is, by nature, open to change, as we assess what we do and iterate upon what works best. We value your critical feedback—and also value the positive feedback we receive regularly. At times a lab school approach can be challenging for our team. The impact of our programming is best measured in our students who are thriving as they learn in real-world contexts, take agency in their own learning, and build relationships with their teachers. We know how important teachers are to our community, and our administration is currently focused on strengthening our efforts in teacher fit, on-boarding, support, and retention. We appreciate your service to our school and regret your individual experience. But we are also grateful to have a strong pipeline of incoming talent who will support our school in growing and thriving into the future. Best, Rachel Skiffer

Vantaggi

- Head of School really cares about the school, students and employees. Kim works very hard to balance fairness and accountability with the business of running a school. - Benefits; a lot of thought goes into the benefit design to ensure the best options are available to employees. There are a lot of options to chose from. - Salary; the Head of School put in a lot of time reviewing salary surveys and designing a compensation package that was fair and competitive. The comp policy took the subjective element out of the equation.

Svantaggi

- Growth is never without it's challenges
