It's my fourth year teaching, but this is an awful place

I want to teach college level and do research. Would quitting this job destroy that chance ?

Maybe....maybe not. But I would try to stick it out. It never looks good bailing on a job but especially a teaching job. My wife taught in the ghetto for 5 or 6 years before getting a teaching spot at a good school. She hated teaching at the ghetto school but now is glad she did it.
