Terrible Employer - Teacher Classical Charter Schools Employee Review

Pros

Since turnover is so high, CCS brings in cohorts of idealistic, smart, and dedicated teachers on an annual basis who are a pleasure to work with. After 3 months, most of them will be gone.

Cons

You won’t learn anything meaningful about how to be an educator at Classical. Instead, you’ll learn how to subject students to a racist, rigid behavior management system while repeating curricular scripts intended to pass as classroom dialogue. Attrition is high and network management is at best chaotic while teachers are subject to routine degradation in the name of “coaching” and “support.” Consider this a warning and pass over this employer alongside all “no excuses” charter schools.

Pros

* Teachers are provided with classroom materials and resources. * Teachers are not required to pay for or print materials on their own. * Operations team supports printing and material preparation.

Cons

* Printing machines frequently break down, causing delays and disruptions. * Teachers do not have direct access to printing and must rely on Operations. * Teacher supply requests are often limited or denied despite classroom needs. * Staff morale and student joy feel very low or nonexistent. * School leadership creates a culture of fear when data is not where it is expected to be. * There is little accountability placed on parents regarding attendance and scholar responsibilities. * Attendance policies are extremely strict for staff and students. * Spirit days lack excitement because students are often still restricted by uniform expectations. * Overall school culture can feel overly rigid and stressful rather than supportive and uplifting.
