...and is it a school that lives up to its reputation? Is it an enclave of entitlement, or does it actually provide academic challenge?

They are not hiring. But, I think the pay is not reflective of the 20000 they charge students per year.

The Meadows is definitely a challenging school, but at the same time, it also has somewhat of a negative connotation in the valley because it's known for being one of the most obnoxiously pretentious schools out there. I don't know about teacher pay.

I feel like the other private schools in the valley (Faith, Gorman, etc.) actually get more respect within the city, because they offer a similar high quality of education with a lot less pretentiousness.

Yes, but you can almost guarantee that BG and FL don't pay their teachers a salary in line with (much less in excess of) what CCSD pays its teachers. Does anyone here have personal experience with The Meadows as a student or parent??

Sorry, I live in the neighborhood (no niños). I looked at their website for employment. It was kind of a cold message, and I got that creepy low pay, private school feeling, even though it is a gold mine, all about money.
