Pros

They pay better than everyone except Garland for your first year. You get paid for additional PD. Lots of professional learning opportunities. Curriculum is made for you, you just copy and paste and choose your resources. Also had three double plan periods a week when I was there but it may be going away.

Cons

Special Ed starting to outsource IEP goal writing to people outside the child’s school was a disaster, behavior can be rough, no A rated schools at this time, only a third of elementary schools are B rated.

Pros

The school o worked at had some teachers who cared very deeply.

Cons

Most teachers were just there to check boxes. Learning felt like a secondary goal compared to passing tests.
