Is there anyway you can move within your current organisation to the work you like? Network for a few months and transfer internally? Personally, I would not go somewhere with a culture I was not interested in.

This is a good option. Another huge factor is the pay bump though. If I make the jump, salary increase would be about 45% which is really hard to turn down

Before making the jump? Currently I love my company, but don’t love the work I do.

What parts of this culture are you not interested in? I’m sure you could find a way to tolerate whatever you don’t like for long enough to get this properly on your resume and then move somewhere you’re more interested in.

Our district is so lax on the students this year. With tech issues and distance learning days, we’ve gone from accommodating to enabling real quick. No penalties for late work, taking excuses for attendance, lower academic and behavioral standards... We were beginning to make so much progress on transforming our school culture, but this year is erasing that and then some. Is anyone else concerned about how to raise the expectations and students’ self-discipline back to pre-enabling levels?
