Humble ISD Reviews

The vision of the district is to have all classroom teaching uniform across the district. If you are a teacher with minimal skills and prefer having lessons handed to you, this is a good district. The 'new' way for this district is to hire outside the district, so if you want to be promoted, this is not a good district for you. However, if you are coming from another district, you have a better chance. I am a teacher, but have had 10 years experience and many friends at all levels. Last year the district structured the pay raise so that new teachers had the largest raises and the most experienced teacher received the least raise. This shows that the district does not value experience.

It's about who you know to move up in this district. Too many unprofessional things happen in this district and those teachers are never disciplined. If they are disciplined, those teachers are moved around from school to school or if they know someone higher up, the issue just goes away. Those are the teachers you have to pick up slack for as well as the teachers that are friends with administrators. Target on your back if you stand up for what you think is right. Lack of professional development opportunities.
