Teacher

"I've worked for DISD for two years now. I can tell you that, while the pay might sound good at first, the higher administration in DISD does not have the interest of teachers in their mind. What they are looking for is simply results and to make teachers miserable through all of the bureaucratic things that they require from us. If there was a way that I could go work at another district, I would take the job in a heartbeat."

"DISD is unbelievably political and difficult to navigate. Your coworkers may be great but be careful of leadership, especially in Central Staff. If you are a good employee, they may block you from transferring to better positions within the district."

Dallas Independent School District Employee

"I've worked for Dallas ISD since August of 2016. While imperfect, as any school district is, I have found it to be a step ahead of many urban districts in the country. The focus on student achievement and college preparedness is high-quality, and the TEI system for evaluating and compensating teachers based on performance rather than seniority is something that other school districts will likely use in the future with success."

"If you know anything about Dallas ISD you would know it is one of the most corrupt school districts in the country. Administration is not interested in teaching students, just interested in what it is for them. Recent headlines in the Dallas Morning News prove what I have learned."
