[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So to get back on topic, I just want to know if they hire female teachers. If someone can please speak to this I would appreciate it. Thanks. [/quote]

It appears they don't.  Check out the faculty list on their website.  https://heights.edu/faculty/

There are women employed at the school in non-teaching roles (Librarian, Business Manager, Communications and Fundraising/events), so they are open to hiring women.  There are just zero women in teaching positions.  [/quote]

So they all hold support positions. Interesting. [/quote]

Those are all professional positions. It's not like they are lunch ladies or scrub toilets so that's all the students think women can do![/quote]

I did not say they were not professional.  They are support positions.  These are not leadership positions that would impact the student.  A librarian, events coordinator, and business exec.  None of these are positions of respect in the students' eyes.  Personally I believe having only males as a role models in an academic environment is robbing the children of highly qualified educators who happen to be women and the opportunity to interact in with them in a professional setting.[/quote]

Maybe your sons wouldn't respect a librarian, but she's beloved at the school where I teach and my stepson has kept in contact with his school librarian for 3 years after graduating. Often, the respect is very genuine because there's no grades impacting the relationship. [/quote]
