Pros

Salary Students Team Members Opportunities to network National Spotlight

Cons

Arbitrary reappointment practices for anyone other than a teacher--the performance evaluation system for central office staff does not match the work assigned (generic tool) Turnover rate insane--lack of consistency in team make-up always hiring and retraining people means progress cannot be made at a consistent rate. Work-Life balance--Central office focused on output not quality which results in poor outcomes at the school and classroom level
