Life-changing journalism. So heartbroken the new CEO is dissolving it and laying off excellent reporters.
Well reported and engaging
08/16/2021
When we started at a charter school nine years ago in nyc we were encouraged to get engaged in the debate over how schools operate so some of this material is familiar. We have been fortunate to attend Success Academy which has tackled many of the issues plaguing other schools. It’s still a work in progress but they are trying everyday with luxury of being a small and focused operation. This year we start with a city school that promises to be better than average. Fingers crossed. Also enjoyed the international student episode. They hinted at a looming college for colleges on the horizon. Looking forward to report on the coming drought of students
The findings are validating but not shocking

The findings are validating but not shocking. When I graduated in 2011, I was one of the only graduates to find a teaching job—most of my friends had to do clerical work and food service. At my first interview, I was told there had been 600 applications, and they selected ten of us to interview—I didn’t get the job. Ultimately, I applied to 265 teaching jobs. I only got interviews with 8 of them. I only advanced to the second round of interviews with 2 of those. After that, I received 1 offer. Ten years later, you have 265 districts vying for 8 candidates.
