Pros

Colleagues are great and dedicated to students. They work hard in spite of all the obstacles BCPS places in front of them

Cons

Constant new initiatives, no time to digest and flesh out new ideas. One size fits all approach by admin is seen as a way of achieving equity but the district is very diverse and the ideas that will propel one school forward will not work at all schools. Dr Dance is not the leader we need. The new grading policy is terrible and terribly unclear. Teachers in my school are ready to leave in droves. New HS science curricula were not given the necessary budget for development, as such new curricula did not have enough man hours to really develop a quality product

Pros

The other teachers are very supportive and willing to help.

Cons

Too many expectations of teachers, while providing minimal support. The students' behaviors are out of control, and the administration does not support teachers- often discipline is left to the teachers solely, and the students pick up very quickly that no one will do anything about their behaviors.
