Pros

Great pay. Great benefits. Coworkers and students are wonderful.

Cons

Teachers are at the mercy of administrators. There is no real HR support for employees in the event of conflict with administrators. As there is no unbiased 3rd party arbitration process, administrators hold unlimited power over teachers. I wrote an email to administrative leadership advocating for higher pay for our support staff. I was shocked when I found out that school support staff only make minimum wage at Learn4Life. Their equals in local school districts - with union support - make closer to 25 dollars an hour and up. In my email, I explained that our support staff were having a difficult time keeping their cars filled with gas - which explained the very high turnover rate. From that point on, I was under a microscope. I started to get written up for ridiculous things and was eventually fired. My students and coworkers were heartbroken - I was heartbroken.

Pros

-6 hours (despite you getting the job and then they try to tell you that you have to work 8 but won’t legally write that down since it’s not legal) -can make a difference for some students

Cons

-admin hires their family and those people do nothing -admin team out for not doing their job but can’t take criticism, blames it on all of the teachers and team while they do nothing all day and gossip -large amounts of favoritism and nepotism at the Chula Vista site -students don’t graduate -10% grad rate and can confirm. They use kids as numbers to blame teachers, but the kid will never graduate -have recently been bribing students with credits to speak about the school favorably when the news comes around -a lot of teachers let students cheat and admin supports it -an extremely hostile work environment where admin allows teachers to scream at one another, no intervention, and threaten staff -crazy work, deadlines, and lack of accountability as to where teacher funding goes
