[quote=Anonymous]I've worked in both environments and agree completely with 16:00.  I stay at my current high SES school because I love my coworkers and have a great team of administrators.  Some years there are well behaved students and supportive parents and other years are more challenging.  The same was true when I worked in a Title 1 school.  There were years when I received presents and years when I didn't.  Sometimes the helicopter parents take on a mob mentality.  There were years that I felt truly appreciated in the Title 1 school and years where I did not.

To the poster asking about classes - I work in a high school and courses are determined year to year based upon enrollment.  We can request to teach a class but it all comes down to numbers and who is certified to teach which subjects.

My biggest factor in staying at a job is my commute, which affects the general quality of life for my entire family.  #2 would be my co-workers.  I love going to work everyday because my co-workers have become my good friends.  There is not a lot of turnover at my school.[/quote]
