Pros

I loved my campus principal and most admin, but there were large issues when it came to resolving problems that needed assistance from the district level.

Cons

Healthcare wasn't the best and very expensive. Even with a thriving department that was successful, we often had to justify and defend funding cuts that were incredibly inequitable for more affluent campuses within the district.

Pros

The pros are the teaching resources that the district has and the school calendar which allows for summer vacation.

Cons

The cons are high turnover rate and the low value placed on truly supporting teachers. The district does a great job of appearing to support teachers without any of the substantive actions that would accomplish that.
