Pros

Data Driven Instruction for most kids

Cons

KIPP is a burnout network- passionate teachers beware. Well meaning inexperienced teachers come here and believe every word of ever coach/ school leader. On average you will work 50 hours in school roughly 7 am - 5pm and several hours outside of the classroom just to get by unless you just stop following their methods. Behavior is laughable! Students slamming doors and yelling at teachers while returning less than 30 minutes later is the norm. Students may even do this several times in on classroom block. It is not a healthy environment for students or teachers. Culturally this network lacks both student and teacher diversity.
