K12 reviews

Terrible communication. Constant changes and miscommunication are the norm. Teachers are not valued, respected, or appreciated. Teachers have been instructed to take out the curriculum in the courses and replace it with power points filled with whatever that teacher felt was important or had the time to do in the very quick deadline given. The curriculum is awful now, Teachers are only given 30 minutes to teach a lesson, some classes only meet twice a week. The asynchronous courses are a travesty. All opportunities for growth and upward mobility have been taken away. No raises. Bonuses are based on a moving target that the company only tells you about after state scores have been released and conveniently set the marks to be beyond what the school did as a whole. It all seems very shady and illegal at times. Morale is low. Teachers are crying in staff meetings.

* There's a lot of talk about helping to make a good education available to every child, no matter their obstacles. But the focus on the bottom line is really the only thing that drives anything akin to innovative changes. * There's a toxicity about the culture, but I could never put my finger on the cause or the nature of it.
