Pros

The teachers and principals advocate for their co-workers and teams wonderfully. A really great sense of community is fostered at many of the schools in AISD.

Cons

At the district level, it seems that it is run as a business and that at times made teachers feel undervalued from district leaders. Other districts outside of Austin pay 1st year teachers far more than AISD.

Pros

Endless opportunities to be challenged by systemic problems in education. It’s satisfying being able to help students learn skills they will need for all their life.

Cons

There is absolutely nothing redeeming about working for this district. As an organization, they fail to learn from mistakes. There is no comprehensive action plan for anything that matters to teachers - who are truly the core of the entire system. From poor benefits, to dull HR staff, to executive directors with no accountability, Austin ISD truly exemplifies Texas’ place as one of the worst educated populations in the nation.
