Reflection of the State of Education in America - High School Science Teacher Austin ISD Employee Review

Teachers and administrators are assaulted regularly. There have been numerous guns on/near campus and a near fatal stabling. Our funds are continuously decreased each year. And we are limited on the amount of time that we can be compensated on weekends/holidays. I realize our contracts allow for us to be worked all day, but these requirements without pay would never fly in the private sector. Also, some campuses are bright, new, and have state of the art equipment. Others are on the verge of collapse with Asbestos tiles in the rooms. We are told “it’s ok as long as they don’t break.”
