10 Best and Worst School Districts in the US

Here is an article that was sent to me listing the top 10 best and worst school districts in the US based on graduation rates. Also listed are the top 10 fastest growing school districts in the country. As a teacher starting out I would consider this a valuable resource. Remember, just because graduate rates are down does not mean you schould write off a district. Often times these are the students who need extra care and help and if you are up to the job it can be extremely rewarding.

Regarding the Growth in Clark County

I have been one of the numerous teachers to be employed by the Clark County School District. I feel extremely fortunate to do the work I love and have so much opportunity to move ahead in my career here. If you are looking for a job in education I highly reccommend Las Vegas. If you live in an area in which there is little growth the easiest way to find a job is by applying to one of the faster growing school districts in the country. New York City, Texas, Los Angelas, Chicago, the Carolinas and Maryland are looking for teachers. Here's a good article I found regarding the growth in Clark County: http://www.edutopia.org/full-house
