Pros

decent pay, good teacher's association (union), some of the kids are good.

Cons

Admin is completely unsupportive and essentially invisible at the Highland campus. Teachers are not supported. 9 times out of 10, admin will take the parents' and students' side in situations and not stand up for or back up their teachers. Student behavior and vaping is out of control, and the lackluster security team ensures that all of that continues. That, coupled with the fact that admin are incompetent and don't know how to handle situations that require discipline and consequences, will continue to ensure that this school and district go downhill faster than a sled full of fat people.

Pros

I absolutely loved my school, but I had to leave because I just wasn't paid enough with the rising cost of living in Gilbert. They did get a raise after I left, but it still wasn't enough. I have never had a school culture as good as FFE. The parents, students, and principal (has since left), were all amazing to work with.

Cons

GPS is a very large district. I didn't feel valued by the district. I felt VERY valued by my school though. I went to a much smaller school district, and feel more seen.
