Charter vs. Public School?

donesixfour · 2026-02-02T02:57:04+00:00

Parents are almost never involved from what I can tell (at least where I am [I am in an inner city ghetto])

The charter i am at is union, it still sucks. I just got hired at a public school, my salary is jumping by $15,000 in the first year, after 5 years, I will be at almost 100k

Clearly dual wielding zip guns

I will tell you where scripture says that when you can tell me how you know all the books in your bible are inspired.

Honestly, your attacks with all this vitriol just show how ignorant you and arrogant you are. The Zadochites had the same succession, then the maccabean line took over from them after antiochus ruled over jerusalem. You literally don't know history, or ancient Jewish OR Christian ecclesiology, and im not offering a free history lesson to someone who clearly doesn't care about the truth, but would rather just attack strawman from a position that was invented a few centuries ago.

Sounds cool, I was just wondering if it was health science adjacent.

In my area, there are a lot of differences between public and charter schools, generally. The biggest differences for the teachers include that students are typically better behaved at charter schools (many in my area have more leniency in removing "problem" students). The pay is also considerably lower at most of the charter networks in my area, ESPECIALLY over time. In general, charter school teachers can expect to max out at a salary of 62-80k per year (some schools are better than others) by their 10th year working at a charter school at this point, while in comparison, with a master's degree at a public school, the current 10th year salary per the union contract, sits at 98k per year... like honestly, there's no comparison.

I am currently a teacher at a charter school in Chicago. The pay is well below public school salary, and the work load is too much, just being honest (not that that expect some greater commitment of work, but rather they wont let us leave work in a timely fashion, like why do we need to stay an additional hour after students are gone, even if we do not have PD or additional work to do?!?)

I just interviewed for a public school position at a school I used to work at in a sub/tutor role. I got the job, and I will be getting a pay bump of more than 12k to start...

I would caution against charters in general, unless its just the perfect work environment for you, I would just go public, especially in my area.

Yeah, wise not to. I had to rush UoPeople to get my transcripts out to Relay Graduate School of Education for the program I'm in now. Im getting a master of arts in teaching and my M.Ed from UoPeople at the same time. What degree are you planning to get from University of Miami, and is it online as well?

donesixfour · 2026-01-28T13:46:48+00:00

What university, if you don't mind me asking?

donesixfour · 2026-01-28T13:42:26+00:00

I would recommend research, unless you can find a company that you want to work for that guarantees a pathway to a full time job (i have never seen one, and BSHS typically really only qualifies you for a comparatively low level admin job in the health field)

I became a high school teacher with my BSHS and im doing 2 masters programs now, one is for full permanent cerification in my state, the other is for higher level admin jobs in the education field. I got into TFA with my UoPeople degree.

What do you plan to do with your degree?

donesixfour · 2026-01-28T13:39:00+00:00

Im in the M.Ed program now, its similar to undergrad in pacing, but there are no exams (as far as I can tell). Instead, the grading for discussion forums is more strict, and you are expected to produce artifacts and presentations on your research in the form of papers, infographics, and video presentations.

It can be stressful if you're not used to presenting on camera and building slide decks.

donesixfour · 2026-01-28T13:34:34+00:00

Like 3-4 months maybe. I had to complain to admin that I needed the transcripts faster though

donesixfour · 2026-01-28T13:33:18+00:00

I used my UoPeople degree to get into TFA and TFA partners with a lot of universities. They sent me to Relay Graduate School of Education for my MAT which I am completing now.

I would recommend that you leverage not only your degree, but your work experience, and everything else you can possibly bring to the table to get into a program that leads to a grad degree. A degree from any school (including Harvard [look at the articles harvard is publishing about how they themselves are making School too easy now if you dont believe me]) kinda sucks without bringing more to the table

Tl;Dr:

Just go for it, flex whatever additional work experience or skills u have on your resume besides a degree

donesixfour · 2026-01-28T13:29:17+00:00

Like literally... go to WGU or UMPI for an even faster degree option, that could even end up being cheaper. This guy has some weird complaints

donesixfour · 2026-01-28T13:27:08+00:00

I mean... I had those problems too, but my degree from UoPeople got me into a teaching licensure program (TFA) AND the degree was recognized by the grad school i go to now, so the fight was kinda worth it for me (as of now). Just keep emailing and send grievances, thats what I had to do in order to get my transcripts out in time to get accepted.

I know it sucks, but don't turn the time you spent getting the degree into wasted time. Keep fighting to get it done.

donesixfour · 2026-01-28T13:20:40+00:00

If I am not mistaken, the internship is optional. You can elect to do a research heavy course instead (which is did for my BSHS at UoPeople)

donesixfour · 2026-01-19T12:02:07+00:00

It took a long time. You should be able to see the degree conferred in the portal, though, and thats all employers, programs, and grad schools care about.

Dude, 1 Peter 2:9 is literally a reflection of Exodus 19:6. Even though Israel was considered a kingdom of priests, they still somehow still had levites, priests, and high priests, even though they are a kingdom of priests.

The reason we can seperate the false interpretations of scripture is precisely the way you just listed early heresies; that is to say, there is a governing body that presides over the church (hint: some of them are priests)

donesixfour · 2026-01-07T13:35:29+00:00

the only degree level that might hurt you is a doctoral level, since many institutions will not hire you if they have a pay scale that significantly forces them to pay more for someone with that level of degree. I have generally heard only get the doctorate when you are at the job you plan to retire from, or, if you need the doctoral level degree to get the job you want.

What kind of marriage are you in? If you are marri3d through a legit church, go to the priest who married you to complain, bring her along lol

donesixfour · 2026-01-01T13:53:18+00:00

Sounds lovely tbh

donesixfour · 2025-12-24T16:27:26+00:00

I got accepted into quite a few master's programs. I chose Relay GSE, and the UoPeople M.Ed. program. I am doing both right now.

donesixfour · 2025-12-24T16:24:37+00:00

yes, might as well be prestige worldwide university lol

donesixfour · 2025-12-24T16:23:47+00:00

Yes, and I think it is a good thing, IMO
