Phoenix academy - Recensione dipendente - English Teacher presso Phoenix Academy

Friendly, great admin, lovely place to work

No cons I can think of

- Some really strong teaching staff members who would make excellent mentors for less experienced teachers - There is a definite need for substitute teachers, so hours are plentiful - The facility is nice and new - Teacher's bathrooms are clean - In general, high school students behave fairly well - Substitute teachers are given fairly decent lesson plans for each class - I saw no direct evidence of substance use among students - I saw no weapons on the property - Some students are very civil and appreciate a person with some degree of dignity and decorum in their midst

- School administrators impose no consequences on students for misbehavior and refuse to support their teachers, leading to: -- Flagrant disregard for school rules -- Middle school and high school students alike routinely engage in vandalism and violence -- Middle school and high school students alike slip off to the bathrooms to do who-knows-what with one another -- Middle school students engage in inappropriate behavior in front of teachers (again, they know that no consequences will befall them other than a verbal reprimand) - Many teachers have no valid teaching credentials or educational background, leading to inconsistent quality of instruction
