Pros

Good pay and benefits. Worked with good teachers who shared ideas and willing to help.

Cons

No support from administration at all. When asked for help it was counted against evaluation. Principal "fixed" my evaluation so I couldn't get ASPIRE bonus because I had put in my Early Resignation that the district requested we put in if we knew we were not returning the following year. Student behavior is blamed totally on the teacher. Unorganized. They would spring deadlines and meetings at the last minute as if we had no personal lives.
