I found my experience great and educational :D!
teacher
As an educator, I continue to grow immensely at this school, specifically with classroom management and small group instruction. The teachers here are absolutely wonderful, supportive, and compassionate and I would trust any one of these teachers to teach my future children. The most difficult part of the job is the behaviors which can make it extremely difficult to teach, especially to all the kids in the class that want to learn so badly. With the students that have poor behavior, it is often due to a lack of parental involvement which makes it even harder to help with the behavior. If the teachers, parents, and administration worked closely as a team for the troubled behaviors, it would really impact the school in a positive way.

My overall experience as an educator at Glendale American has been great. Teachers and students work together to build a positive community that holds high expectations for learning. Glendale American is a welcoming school that strives for students. All of our work is data based and geared towards student success.
teacher
I have been an educator here for many years. There is a climate of respect among staff members, and the amount of resources available for classrooms seems well above average compared to other schools I have visited. While there are many challenges in teaching, I love all of my students see other teachers have the same relationship with their kids.
