Pros

I worked for LISD through 4 Superintendents and this latest one is making the changes that the district needs. He is moving things back to the "family" feel even with 40+ schools. Working for Leander has had ups and downs, but I felt like I was appreciated.

Cons

Pay rate for IA's is low.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review and for your dedication and service to our SPED students. It is always our goal to support our outstanding staff with the resources and guidance needed to make a profound impact on our students’ educational journey. To that end, we were excited to offer one of the largest salary increases in our district’s history this year, as well as ensuring that the cost for next year’s insurance coverage remains the same or even less. We understand that with teaching comes necessary meetings and administrative duties and your feedback is valuable in helping us maintain our commitment to keeping the focus on student learning.
