Lacking Values and Meaningful Leadership - Teacher The Accelerated Schools Employee Review

Pros

Decent pay and benefits. Not great but not terrible.

Cons

Students are truly not held accountable for bad behavior. You can't send students to the principals office to be dealt with in a meaningful way. I stead we as teachers may be asked "what are you doing/not doing that is triggering these behaviors". Also not enough planning time for teachers yet there are really high expectations for us to have every lesson planned out. Leadership seems to have forgotten what it is like to be a classroom teacher and will require PDs every week that are not meaningful to the work we have to get done in class. Things are shifting to be more and more liberal which conflict with my conservative values.

Pros

Teachers, staff, admin make decisions for best interest of students. They move quickly on student and teacher requests such as equipment, supplies, etc. Students are genuinely kind. Colleagues are very supportive.

Cons

Communication barrier for non-Spanish speaking teachers with families. Building is 4 floors and an entire city block so it takes time to travel from one side to another. Those who just want to collect a pay check won’t survive. Students cannot spot your lack of passion.
