Pros

If this is your thing, then you can get away with doing very little actual work if you work here.

Kontras

All you need to know about this place is that while I worked there, I had a specific SVU detective to report back to about the extremely troubling actions of members of the administration. My lunch breaks were spent on long walks so I could get far enough away from campus to call the NYPD and child safety lines without fear of being overheard by colleagues. When girls across grades come and ask to hide in your classroom because the head of school wants them for his “independent study,” something is wrong. I can understand staying there to protect the kids, but anyone who supports this place is morally bankrupt at best.

Pros

Really enjoy working with my colleagues and administration. The students are great and parents are very supportive too. As a teacher, I can try new things that can support my students best without admin interfering or being told to stick to what’s always been done.

Kontras

Space - like many smaller schools, space is a premium but we get creative in making things work. Probably can make more in public schools but then you have to deal with the misery of working for the NYC DOE.

Pros

I nervously joined the Bay Ridge Prep faculty a few years ago after turning down offers at a few other schools where I knew people. The interview process, which included meeting several other teachers plus students, gave me so much insight into how special this place truly is and kept drawing me back. I have never felt so supported by colleagues and administrators, and appreciated by students and their families, than I have been at Bay Ridge Prep. So many places throw around the word community but run things like corporate institutions. I haven’t experienced that here and it really feels like I’m part of something special.

Kontras

Bay Ridge, the neighborhood, is a bit of a commute. There’s just one train in/out of the area and few other options besides driving. Compensation and benefits are decent for a Brooklyn private school but some of the extra perks that other private schools offer such as meal plans and funds toward tuition expenses are not offered. Maybe as the school grows it will add that on.
