Pros

I was allowed the creative freedom to write my own lessons and curriculum maps.

Cons

Management was completely incompetent. They never communicated with teachers because they were afraid their incompetence would "get out." Ultimately, they expected everyone else to do their jobs. Horrible! This is what happens when upper management salaries are cut!

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.
