Pros

There are many opportunities to attend training. Also, HISD offers an online "Blackboard" type platform for employees, especially teachers, to learn about effective teaching strategies. You get an opportunity to work with a diverse group of individuals and their family.

Cons

Lack of a life/work balance. Classes exceed the state class size ratio. Teachers and support staff are highly underpaid and undervalued. Disgruntled communities. Lack of resources in certain schools.

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.
