As a school social worker who has worked in many school districts I can tell you an administrator’ s job consists of sitting at their desks/computers, moving into rooms for meetings and talking on their phone. They are able to use the restroom when needed, they eat their lunch for however long they want and where they want and they have uninterrupted coffee breaks. Frequently I would pass by a teachers room and they would ask me to take over for a minute while they use the restroom. Their lunches are clocked. Their planning period is more prep time. After school they respond to many e mails An administrator never sees a student I hope when the teachers contract is due they will be given the appropriate raise. The Board has “ approved” a useless amount of administrators who are commanding a ridiculous amount of the budget. I will give the communication spokeswoman an A Plus for skirting every issue
I’ll tell you a funny/sad story to illustrate my point. I was seeing a second grade student in my room. He had an IEP for social work services for behavioral issues. Suddenly he grabbed a metal scissor from my desk and was trying to stick it in an outlet I was literally on the floor wrestling with him to prevent him from carrying out his attempt. Suddenly the Superintendent opened my door and said “ oh excuse me. Sorry “ and closed the door. He had wandered around the school without a clue where he was although a sign next to my door said Social Worker
