What is the best part of working at the company?
I really appreciate the staff I worked with and their commitment to students. Some staff make every day a joy to work.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
 Others are pretty stubborn about changing their habits such as ways they support students with disabilities or classroom management. It was hard to get admin support with these types of staff.  It seems that admin have a hard time coaching struggling staff and seeing results. They end up just pushing out underperforming or stressed staff rather than helping to course correct.  

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
A big pain point is that people will notice others struggling in their role and talk bad behind them rather than try to offer support or solutions. I wish their was less defense and criticism. Everyone seems to be really supportive when things go well! But when things start to falter, everyone gets the mentality of "not my monkey, not my circus." As a result, there are some office politics and blind eyes of unhelpful behavior or exaggeration of successes. Besides this, I enjoyed my time working there. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Once I found a group of teacher that were supportive, there was a real camaraderie and community among the staff that I really appreciated. I really thrived and made an impact on the community. Once you find your cupport network, you will do well!

My experience with Ednovate (Legacy College Prep) for the past 2 years has been a bit of rollercoaster. The staff culture is really great and inviting and is one of the best parts of the job. You can tell all the teachers are really passionate about their job and care about their students. There really isn't any shame in not knowing how to do something and almost anyone will help you with out a problem. The student culture is quite different, I feel one of the issues with the school is the lack of disciplinary actions taken on students which can completely disrupt a class. On the contrary however, the best part of the job is definitely the connections with the students and it's something I will never forget. Ultimately, I had a good experience, but as a part-time employee it feels like you're an after thought and someone they can just plug in wherever. 

Overall message for positive multigenerational change is great! All teacher and staff are great and have the same mindset. When it comes to admin, they don't know how to support the staff. No consequences for student behavior and structure needs improvement. Admin only listens to certain teachers. They place so much on teachers. Stand your ground if you work here and be ready to set boundaries. Overall, students were amazing to be around but workload is intense. 

This is the third charter CMO I have worked for and halfway through my first year it is the happiest I have ever been. Ednovate brings together the right people with the same growth mindset which means I am working with like minded colleagues who want to leave a lasting impact on their students. My goal is to stay with Ednovate and not have to ever go to a different school.

This school is severely lacking in the funding, resources, and support for teachers. The school has a high turnover rate accompanied with teacher burnout. 

Overall everyone works extremely hard to support student outcomes. Budgets are tight, and staffing is slim so people work harder than they might like.  The team is full of high achievers, so things get done and outcomes exceed standards.  The downside is that the culture has high expectations with minimal celebration of wins or recognition that what is being achieved exceeds industry standards.  They're working on celebrating more. 

Working at Ednovate is extremely hard work. You will be challenged to meet very high standards. However, this creates the importance of our work. I feel like Ednovate does a great job of amplifying how important education is in our low income communities. However, because of these high expectations, it creates extremely hard work for every single individual in the network. 

Terrible Management, and is a disservice to its students and communities. From the team that I started with, 1 year later, none of them remained. Leadership lied many times to staff and parents.

High turnover, failed promises and overly competitive under qualified staff with limited to no teaching licensing or experience in the classroom or in the field. Everything just described reflects the climate and culture of Ednovate and their charter schools.

Ednovate has a great culture to work at. The people are supportive and have a strong team mentality. Through my own experience, Ednovate provided me opportunities to grow in the field that interested me the most.
