Can't believe I'm doing this (grad school)............
For a long time, I've had people telling me to go back and get my Rank I in Educational Administration and go for one of our principal jobs in my school I've been at for 16 years. And, I just applied and believe I'll be starting here in a few months. Good god, I swore I'd never do it, but here I go............

I'm going for 30 hours past my Masters Degree. I can get an Admin credential in about 21 hours, but hell, I can get an extra pay raise if I go to 30 (which is called Rank I). The two hardest things for me will be hours away from my wife and kids, and not reading what I want to read all the time.

Learning is wasted on the young. It's a tremendous opportunity to learn when you can actually appreciate the process.
And, principle gigs are stressful but if you have the right makeup for it, they're awesome. I have a friend who just went down that path early after becoming a teacher. He's really glad he did it, and he didn't even have your inside track at an existing school. |
