Pros

Colleagues work well together and are there for the ultimate goal of educational success for students.

Cons

Salary (in any teaching position) cannot sustain a livable life, Cost of Living, Staff usually has more than one job to survive, Inflation, Too Many Hats to be worn that are not in our contracts, parent overreach (more rights) over staff, 10 month paycheck spread over 12 months, no PTO, and an overabundance of Professional Development Days, staff needs a break just as much as the students

Thank you for your feedback. We are thrilled to hear that you have found that your colleagues work well together and there is a common committment to student success! We also appreciate your feedback regarding salary and the many hats teachers wear. We are constantly reviewing our compensation package and working to move toward higher wages within the boundaries we currently have with funding. We recognize the demands put on teachers and we continue to work on ways to streamline responsibilities wherever possible. We continue to focus efforts on work/life balance for our staff and will share your feedback with those departments. Thank you for all you do for the students of LISD!
