Good health benefits Teaching staff is good and genuinely care about the kids Great kids
Cons

Pros
The exam for entrance wasn't too difficult. I had a good experience interviewing. Some of the people that I met are good people. School district vacation schedules.
Cons
Very disorganized, budget issues, some underhanded practices at times. Some people are underqualified for positions that they hold. very overworked worked and underpaid at times. I would not send my children to any of the schools in this district.
Advice to Management
My advice would be to do an overhaul of your management and advisory board. Ensure that people have the qualifications necessary to run the district.
