Pros

Austin ISD does have good medical insurance, however, extenuating circumstance becomes a challenge.

Cons

-No bereavement leave. You use up any days that you have left. FMLA will not cover it, and employees cannot donate days to each other. You can either come back to work or you can get leave without pay and pay your own insurance. I had to go back to work with less than a month after a loss.
