[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a teacher and can confirm that the vast majority of central office jobs are total wastes of time and money. They don't help kids. They bump all problems raised to them back down to building administration. They just sit at their desks, have 'meetings', and collect outrageous salaries. Honestly if they cut every co job besides payroll, hr, and special education outplacement and outside provider coordinators, it would make zero difference in how schools are operated day-to-day.

But compliance with state and federal law would be nonexistent. Curriculum evaluation, procurement, and resource coordination would not happen which means teachers and staff would have even more sourcing and coordination of that then they do now.  We’d have no compiled data of schools and programs which means we’d have even less understanding of how individual schools and the district are doing.  There would not have been any coordinated effort to roll out science of reading. Etc. Etc. And we would certainly have more inequity than now.

CO may have some bloat, but I can assure you that in order to do things at scale requires people to be in charge of managing collaboration, communication, finance, and a whole host of other things.[/quote]
