Pros

Noble is a stable, impactful place that is making a positive difference for students in Chicago. They offer a strong, affordable suite of benefits, you're working alongside other mission-aligned people, and the work you're doing together is actually moving the needle for student outcomes in Chicago.

Cons

The teacher salary is a little bit lower than what other districts offer, however, that is because Noble funnels resources towards materials (you don't buy your own supplies), and college resources and supports for our students. The work is not always a typical 9-5, but it is worth it because the results of everyone's collective efforts are making a positive difference for kids.

Pros

Decent pay, pretty great benefits, pension,

Cons

Many. No feedback on performance, different noble school allow paras to get summers off, paid/unpaid, must work all summer. It’s so inconsistent. LBS1s at times don’t do their jobs and expect para to lead, yet we don’t get paid for that, prioritize test scores and gpa gaps but not actual learning, all teachers are expected to pass kids at the end of the year. Standards base grading is absolutely hurting these students and their retention in college.
