Bullis-Charter-School

This school is known for long hours and a heavy workload, and that reputation is accurate. Teachers are expected to take on constant extra duties beyond teaching — with last-minute tasks added on by administration, who treat prep time not as an essential tool for better teaching but as space to fill with more work. Saying “no” is not an option, and the workload only grows.

From training onward, leadership has signaled how they view teachers: less as professional educators and more as staff expected to serve families and administration. Facilities and resources are poorly maintained, concerns are dismissed, and principals avoid responsibility for discipline. With little accountability, students quickly learn they can act out without consequence, creating a culture of disrespect that makes teaching even harder.

The school also uses “bonus” programs to push additional work, with vague and time-consuming assignments that cannot be declined. The small payout compared to the demands feels less like recognition and more like pressure. While leadership points to student scores as a success, many families rely on outside tutoring and afterschool programs, making the results misleading. Overall, the culture undermines teachers’ professionalism, piles on unsustainable workloads, and offers little real support.

Teachers are asked a lot, and (depending on the principal) support can be splotchy.  There's always a lot of push to "innovate" and make everything new and fancy, but not everything sticks so there's a lot of dead ends that just sort of stick around because "that's how it's done."  The parent community is SO needy, and are often the main reason teachers choose to quit.

This was the best teaching job I’d ever had. Mostly because the students here are ready to learn! They come from homes that value education and give them a great foundation to work from.  Imagine, going into a school where you could actually focus on your low/ problem kids because there are so few of them?!? It’s like vacation teaching.

I really liked it here. I felt supported by my admin and the other teachers I worked with. The environment is great and 99% of the people around you are team players. With any changes/decisions made, they keep in mind what is best for student success. 

I would recommend an internship here just to get some experience, but there was not much to do. My supervisor was very flexible with the working hours though which was a plus.

I will be playing football in college, so working at a football camp and helping out kids was a great experience!
