which would you choose?

I am currently a middle school science teacher teaching 6th and 7th grade students at a title one school who has had their fair share of absolutely leaving me in shambles after a school day. I also dislike my team because it is very toxic and independent, no one is genuinely willing to help without side-eyeing you into believing you are not doing your job. I have had considerable growth not only with forming relationships with the students but also increasing my rigor and understanding of the rhythm of teaching.

I am going into my 4th year of teaching and I truly do not want to return to my current position given my team and the sheer stress levels at the school. With that being said I was offered a lateral move with another district which pays more (about 7k more) and is 7th and 8th grade science instead. This would make me STAAR tested, and here’s the kicker. They are a turn-around school which means they are getting new admin, new staff, everything new, the whole 9 yards.

Essentially I am going into this blind with no understanding of what I may be walking into. It is a shorter commute, pays more, and is a fresh start from where I am currently. I am not sure if that changes yalls decision but please let me know what you would do, outside looking in…
