Pros

The organization has high expectations for all staff and scholars, a culture of professionalism, and a strong track record in scholar results. There is a fully aligned and thoughtfully developed curriculum, an excellent professional development cycle that ensures all staff are successful in their current roles and ready for the next step in their careers, and an emphasis on teachers and their mission critical work. This is evidenced through a multi-faceted support system comprised of deans who support with behavior management, coaches who support with teaching and planning, and operations staff members who support with breakfast, lunch, dismissal, copies, and technology. A group of hardworking, high performing, high potential scholars rounds out the work environment and provides a clear purpose for every day.

Cons

The work that we do is hard and the bar is high; it is not a fit for everyone, but for those who seek what Classical has to offer in terms of structure and performance, there's no better place to grow a career in education.

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.
