Austin ISD; low pay for enormous expectation of workload

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

AISD school are central to the Austin area and therefore, with the traffic problem in Austin, it is ideal for the commute

Cons

AISD pays the least of all Austin area school districts but expect more considering that the students in most of the lower economic areas are not performing at grade level. They rarely fail students due to statistic that show that failing before entering high school decreases the drop out rate. The student demographic (minus the few higher end neighborhood) is comprised of mostly Title 1 qualifying student populations with little to no parental support. Therefore, students enter each grade level primarily illiterate.

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits reasonably good, some excellent professional development resources available, many outstanding individuals working very devotedly.

Cons

Clerical tasks ever burgeoning to the detriment of vast and diverse human needs. Experience undervalued and many veterans in schools as well as district office have departed. Many decent people stressed out and at their worst owing to impossible workloads.
