After just two years of enduring shockingly poor working conditions at a public school, Castedra Francis, 32, “saw a very dark future for myself.”
Castedra Francis from Brooklyn became a New York City public school teacher with the goal of making a difference in the lives of children with disabilities.But after just two years of enduring shockingly poor working conditions at a public school for students withFrancis switched to a charter school and, to her surprise, is now living her educational “dream.”
“I had to prep everything on my own without having any guidance to follow. I came up with every objective, every lesson plan. There was a lack of resources for students with disabilities.” “People saw me getting injured and nobody intervened,” Francis recalled. “My principal said they were sorry and that was it. And then it happened again. I didn’t have any support and it was pretty traumatic for me.”
Knowing that she couldn’t last in an environment where teachers weren’t supported, Francis switched last year to teaching 11th grade AP Language and Composition at Brooklyn Laboratory High School, a charter school in DUMBO – a position she described as “a dream.”
