Pros

Best professional development and technology an educator could ask for. Good pay and benefits

Cons

The middle people between top management and teachers made reaching goals, mission, and vision very difficult. Decisions were made based on emotion and connection; not who does the job best.

Pros

Students and some of the parents are really great to work with. The teachers are really great and they will help you out with anything. There is quite a commroderie between the departments and it is just are really great place to work .

Cons

The pay is not very great. You are not allowed to be as creative in this district as you might be in others. At times it appears that the dress code is more important than the actual education of the student.
