[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about school principals?  Are they paid on 12-month salaries with all this vacation or contracts like teachers?[/quote]

Yes, 12 month employees that are school-based include principals, Assistant principals and Instructional Technology Coordinators (ITC). There’s no reason why an ITC needs to be 12 month, seems excessive. Assistant principals could probably be 11 month easily, like neighboring Alexandria.[/quote]

That seems strange to me.  What are principals doing at work during the time when teachers are off (like summer)?[/quote]

A lot of principals take their accrued leave for trips in the summer, but their work is mostly around planning and preparing and I guess hiring? Assistant principals are the building administrators for few schools that host summer school, so principals have it pretty easy. [/quote]

How dare they take a break during summer? With such an easy job they shouldn’t be allowed to take a vacation at all, or have families, or raise kids, let alone get sick![/quote]

I think this also describes how many DCUM posters feel about teachers[/quote]

Yes, this! I find it admirable for principals to wait for summer to use their accrued leave so they aren’t away from their building during normal operating days. [/quote]
