[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do these good principals get recognition for being good? Does anything happen to the ones who are not good?[/quote] Principals receive little recognition and are constantly placed in hopeless political and emotional situations involving students, parents, and staff. It is a wonder that any principals survive more than a few years in any given school. It does not take long to spend all of their political capital, and the days are far too busy to develop quality relationships for the long term (at least in my experience) due to putting out so many little fires all day, every day. Can you think of another supervisor in the private sector who is asked to effectively evaluate 50+ employees? If you have a great principal (as a teacher or a parent) definitely send them a nice holiday card of appreciation. [/quote]
