Pros

Incredible location. Incredible facilities/buildings. Colleagues are amazing. Learning Services department supports students who need the most help. Option to live on campus. Good food in the student center. Unlike other boarding schools, coaching a sport and being a dorm parent is NOT required for teaching faculty.

Cons

Bloated administration. Toxic administration. So focused on recruiting students that there is very little discernment about who is a good fit, the focus is on how much they can pay—which leads to admitting many difficult students needing incredible support and behavior correction. Very long hours, as is the case in boarding schools—some evening and weekend hours are required. Toxic work environment.

Pros

Good sense of community, people are kind and supportive

Cons

Sports/extra curricular activities are not as much a priority as other activities anymore, although the national basketball team is the exception. Administration tends to be cliquey.
