Pros

My children loved their teachers and the curriculum is great, when you get a teacher that follows it. I loved working with children and families.

Cons

Too much turnover in District "Leaders" who didn't lead. I am a person who loves to grow and always asks for help. I was frustrated when my DLs (yes, more than one) didn't know or care how to help. I worked 50 hours a week, always ate lunch at my desk working on the computer, and could still not keep up with the increasing work load. In AZ, we saw our buildings in need of repair and new furniture, but were denied. I always felt like the team in my building was a family and co-workers were always there for our kids and each other, but it stopped at our door. Upper management could care less about me a person.

We have started up an initiative fostering ownership and responsibility for our leaders and helping them -- and their teams -- feel supported and encouraged to grow in their roles. We also encourage you to meet with your leaders and express your concerns about work volume or workload. Thank you for sharing your experience and opinions. - Derek, Talent Attraction Manager

Pros

The kids are super sweet and fun

Cons

Management lies about what they are prepared to offer you. They hire you on, offering a promotion as soon as you meet certain metrics, then once you've met them, they refuse to promote. I was hired to be a director, was told to just complete my state mandated hours on site as a teacher, then I would be promoted. I finished my house rain two months and six months later had not received any promotion. They will cut employees hours to train new employees.
