[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]HOS shouldn’t make as much as they do. They deal with some shitty situations, tough choices, and have to sell the school. But the teachers really make the school. They have the daily parent & student interactions, community building, support systems, etc all on their back. Maybe some HOS are really integrated into school life but most aren’t. Schools need to pay their teachers more to compensate for all of that. [/quote]

The HOS is the one that makes sure division leadership is strong and that teachers are excellent. They also raise the money beyond tuition that keeps your school running. The best also set the tone and culture at your school.  [/quote]

Not these days. In 2024, a head mostly fundraises. It's the division heads and individual departments that choose the candidates and the head approves them.[/quote]

Exactly. Department chairs (teachers) do the hiring and lead departments. They do the day-to-day work of making sure instruction is excellent. The HOS? He sits in an office and thinks about money.

Perhaps we should pay department heads more.
