Business outlook
Pros
Very smart and motivated students, lots of opportunities for professional development and growth.
Cons
AF overworks their staff with unnecessary meetings and training, which leaves no time for teacher prep. So life/work balance is definitely a challenge. There is also a lot of sexism and discrimination that never gets addressed, Teachers are silenced and isolated in the name of having a professional "adult culture." There is a concerning amount of attention dedicated to behavioral management that makes teachers feel as though they are perpetuating the racist legal system brown and black children already live in outside of school.
