Kontras
If you are considering a position at a school, make sure you have a very clear understanding of who the school leader is and their track record with their staff (particularly the Ops team… how they are treated by their principal says a lot about the culture there). Here are a few highlights. *My principal is often very unkind to me, LT and the Ops staff. When reported, it fell on deaf ears. *My principal has favorites (staff members) and would treat them differently. *My principal would send LT to do their dirty work and would get involved only to deliver good news. *My principal was known for being difficult to work with and often made staff members cry if they made a trivial mistake. *No one at the network checks this particular principal’s behavior which has allowed a pretty toxic culture to fester at this particular school.
