Pros

Wonderfully dedicated teachers, strong administrative support (at school level), and many central office colleagues devoted to the betterment of students.DCPS has the tremendous potential to become a leading force in urban education and education reform.

Cons

Poor communication with and from management; "clique" oriented environment in the central office; closed door harassment, hostility and denegration of central office staff (not all departments); improper, purposeless training sessions; unrealistic expectations in an unrealistic timeframe. Too much time wasted on meaningless and wholly undefined endeavors certain to change or be "scraped" before implementation. Termination of personnel is a sport.
