Pros

None really that I can think of.

Cons

They can re assign you when they feel like it,to another campus or within the campus.It is all about testing and data,treating kids like robots and pushing teachers to do impossible tasks. Principals worried to keep their jobs anyway they can instead of running a school properly. By far my worst experience teaching in11 years. Would not recommend it to any teacher I know. To top it all off,their evaluation system,which was developed for cattle,is not only unfair but ridiculous.

Pros

-Love working with the students in HISD -Most coworkers are amazing and passionate about providing access to post-secondary options to all students

Cons

-Instruction from higher up in HISD is often inconsistent, and they deliver expectations and news VERY last minute -There's a lot of disorganization due to being understaffed as everyone is being stretched thin -Isn't room to grow pay-wise in this role; I have to change roles in order to get a salary increase.
