Large district = bad for employees

Business Outlook

Pros

Individual schools particularly in the northwest area are great

Cons

The district level is a nightmare - it’s too big, so they are disconnected from the needs of the schools and clueless about how their policies affect teachers

Solid place to work, but it depends on the administration

Pros

When you have great administration, life is great. Teaching the subject I teach, I get a lot of latitude on how it it taught, so long as I am covering the standards and pacing.

Cons

If you have bad administration, they can make your work life very difficult. Quality of administration varies greatly from school to school. A lot of the admins spent minimal time in the classroom as a teacher and it often shows.
