[quote=Anonymous]Do it OP. If you are fine with the pay cut, then jump in. It will be a wild ride the first few years but it will be worth it. We need good teachers in our schools. The kids aren’t as bad as some folks on here are making them out to be and I teach at a low/middle income public high school. Yes, some of the behavior is atrocious and hallway fights can be unsettling but most kids range from decent to amazing. I had teenagers at home when I started teaching high school and that really helped me with the transition. I was familiar with the moodiness, snarky attitudes and general surliness. And get used to eye rolls. But once you win them over, you get to see a different side of the kids. If you genuinely like teenagers, you will be fine [/quote]
