Pros

In the Fine Arts Division I had wonderful staff to work with.

Cons

Some principals did not need to be in a leadership positions because of disrespect and lack of support shown to their teaching staff. Too many power-hungry principals existed in the 3 Texas School districts I taught in. Parents are always correct! The teacher becomes the "Fall Guy"!

Limited upward mobility and compensation growth for experienced teachers. Administrative decisions often disconnect from classroom realities. Emotional labor is high with little systemic support.
