Query: How many assistant principals did your HS have? How many do they have today?

Mine had none. And I don't think we missed them.

Just when we think Leftists couldn’t be any dumber they surprise us.

When you are in a serene and academically-inspiring room, and someone farts, guess what you focus on? The ******* fart. Now the teacher cannot remove the person causing the disruption, and he continues to fart, destroying any chance that the remainder of the kids get something out of that class. It is that simple, remove the distractions and let the kids there to learn, actually learn. Not that hard a concept.

Bingo...
Obviously too hard for the enlightened leftists in the land of fruits and nuts to understand though

Spot on.

My HS? Either 3 or 4, and Koehler was one dude you likely didn’t want to mess with. He still smoked in his office.

My (now adult) kids? They likely had 8 or more in each of their schools with PLENTY of layers of other Admin in before and even after the Asst. “Principals”.

Administrative assistant this, Assistant to the Director of that.

I say fire em all, give the money to buying books or paying those that actually TEACH!
Tell the others to go get a job. Clearly they aren’t doing anything useful now, it’s anarchy and chaos on a near daily basis as it is, what value to teaching these kids do they really bring?

All of those high school ADs, asst principals, associate principals, and other administrators are where a big chunk of money goes as they have fat salaries. Teachers who want to make bank move into administration.
