About seven or eight years ago I began a master’s degree program in educational leadership. After a few classes I was accepted into a federal leadership grant for urban school administration. Very nice, I only had to pay for books and few classes to earn my master’s along with my administrative credential. All throughout the program I kept hearing how in five to seven years over 30% or so of the administrators for our district were going to retire.
Ok, times up. Where are all these retirees? Retire already and get out of the way!
So, memo to possible retirees: Retire already! Next year there will be pay cuts and more work. Isn’t it time for you to be relaxing, golfing, traveling, telling stories about back in the day?
