Pros

Co-workers are usually great as they are having the same struggles that you are.

Cons

Mike Miles. Ever since he was appointed to lead the district, it has been a nightmare. I hate going to work every day. I loved teaching and though this would be my last career. He and the way he runs this district has made me want to get out ASAP. He is going to ruin this district, but that was the plan all along. I feel sorry for parents that have no choice in where their children go to school. He is trying to create little minions that will do nothing but go into the capitalistic work force or the military. Creativity, innovation, and fine arts are NOT respected by this new leadership.

Pros

-Love working with the students in HISD -Most coworkers are amazing and passionate about providing access to post-secondary options to all students

Cons

-Instruction from higher up in HISD is often inconsistent, and they deliver expectations and news VERY last minute -There's a lot of disorganization due to being understaffed as everyone is being stretched thin -Isn't room to grow pay-wise in this role; I have to change roles in order to get a salary increase.
