Also, given R's experience, I'd express a word of caution regarding Boston - the schools are SO varied in terms of school culture that it's very administration-dependent, and they're so easy to move between for students that if kids were determined to be trouble, they'd have little reason not to. Even more so than other systems, talk to your potential fellow faculty before accepting. Boston pays well, but it's essentially combat pay. Some of the schools are great, though.
