[quote=Anonymous]New poster.  What I can tell you is that HOS in this area and some others are grossly overpaid.  Most are not professionals in finance, law, or any other area outside of education or the arts.  Do they have some knowledge or skills of those areas? Yes, but so do most professionals who move up the business ladder.  It comes with the territory.

You could certainly find a good person to be HOS for less than 1M dollars.  That salary is significantly more than any Superintendent in the area makes and they are responsible for more students, staff, buildings, operations, etc.

Anyone believes that teachers are only managing classrooms obviously doesn’t know much about their schools.  Who do you think is manage school clubs? Who do you think in most schools are the head of departments? Who is writing recommendations letters for college, internship programs, new schools if desired?

Should HOS be payed well? Absolutely!  Is the difference between their salary and the staff too great? Absolutely?  The same paradigm exist in corporate america and we can already see people getting more and more fed up about it.[/quote]
