      Pros

      There are a number of professional development opportunities available in the summer and during the school year

      Cons

      A Board that is more polarized and politicized than ever. The apparent racial divide is disheartening considering the diversity of the District and the infighting is childish and counterproductive. The District no longer values advanced degrees which is evident by the removal of the higher pay scale for advanced degrees. There are little to no opportunities for teacher leadership and promotion to school leadership roles is difficult to obtain. And, despite having a principal pipeline program, school leadership is not improving.

      Pros

      Great pay! Free tickets to athletic events.

      Cons

      Horrible pressure to pass children who were not even attempting to do the work. Admin staff allowed to harass employees. Parent able to pay into PTA fund, and students gain special privileges as a result. Money talks, not hard work and honesty.
