Pros

This is a charter school, so teachers have the freedom to be themselves and explore new methods for success. Character is demonstrated and taught no matter what your subject. The leadership and staff is exceptional; a very tight group of teachers and administrators that really maintain the kids as the absolute priority. They do more with less; the atmosphere and students benefit from the effort. Great place for new teachers.

Cons

It's a charter school. That means you don't have the luxury of... say... full time janitors. Everyone does everything. Also, the equipment and facilities aren't always what you need them to be. Although I'm listing this as a Con, it's part of the experience of doing more with less. Also, if you're from a public school you might find the fact that you can be fired if you don't perform as a Con. Obviously, if that's the case, you're not of the mindset to work in any charter school.

Emotion Driven Leadership

Pros

Staff culture is positive, lots of good teachers to help newer staff, coaching program provides some feedback and assistance

Cons

Emotional leadership makes work chaotic. Sometimes you are unaware of the direction of the program, the CEO doesn't seem to be able to separate her pride from any single event at the school. Nepotism is a major problem as the CEO is the mother of one of the administrators. This administrator rose through the ranks very quickly despite having very little classroom experience. Sometimes, they will have public arguments that result in both the CEO and the principal locking themselves in their office for the remainder of the day. It makes it very uncomfortable for everyone in that area. Some members of admin also appear afraid to speak to parents. When parents come to speak they hide away in their office and send the front desk receptionist to deal with the angry parent.
