Pros

Well funded. The school have a lot of support staff and technology. Great professional development opportunities.

Cons

The district thinks that it will solve all its problems with technology. They want to put a device in the hands of all the children, even though the children need emotional connections with real people. The poorest schools in the district will suffer the most with this loss of personal contact.

Business Outlook

Pros

You only have to work when you want. You are finished when school is over which is early. You don't have any responsibilities when your day is finished. You are not responsible for students grade performances. You can learn a lot about all ages, grades, schools, and system in general. I feel like many of the teachers and administrators appreciate the help!

Cons

There are many behavior challenged students in each classroom. Students misbehave more because you are the substitute. You are basically getting paid to babysit unruly children because unfortunately, you do not have time to help or give attention to the students that deserve it.
