"Notes from an experienced educator"

What do you like about working at NYC Department of Education?

"Fellow Educators are aware of current events and the student situation, and help each other to cope with it. Many savvy APs are similarly aware, especially those who have teaching assignments, and are supportive of their professional staff."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"If possible, do some substitute teaching before making a decision that you would want to make a career in this organization."

What don't you like about working at NYC Department of Education?

"The system is too large for itself, and the downsides of the inefficiencies are felt by the Teachers"

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Do not raise the bar on standards, as the existing rubrics or rating standards are fine as is.Spend or invest in more technology to be made available in the classroom.Make the formal observations a smaller percentage of the total evaluational picture, because there are many efforts made by teachers which can often go unnoticed by administration when forming impressions of their teaching staff."
