I'm a teacher at a charter school in my city. Been here for about 4.5, almost 5 school years. I want to try something new and move to an actual district. I will say that these past few years ... I have amazing colleagues, my pay is really great, I have autonomy in the classroom, and despite a lot of teacher shortages, our team (English language learning) is really stable (same teachers every year). I lead my team, and people trust my work. I mean there are many pros of staying. My only hesitation is ... outside influence. My husband thinks I should stay because he sees how well I work with my colleagues, and my admin supports me fully. My family (mom and sister) think I should leave my job (they don't know all of the positive things I do -- they just see it is a low-income school with no opportunities for growth).

Our evaluations are this week and I'm meeting with admin to talk about plans for next year. I don't know what to say... any suggestions?
