Pros

Decent work load. Great co-workers. No school for students, no work for employees, except during the summer. Even then, worked 4 days a week and off on Fridays.

Cons

Pre-approval for days off. Only could have 3 unplanned absences in a 12 month period, then was reprehended if exceeded. No opportunity for growth, rarely any promotions and transfers, if any, were lateral.

Pros

Pays more than most districts. There is possibility of growth or movement every year.

Cons

Too many changes at times. When you have a good administration, they are shipped to other schools to help, but your school has to rest and start over with a leadership.
