Today, I was given the opportunity to help complete some tasks that our campus principal has had on her "to do" list this summer. I went to school this morning to review the list with her. In my head, I was thinking, "I can totally finish this in a few hours! This should be a breeze."
Boy. Was. I. Ever. Wrong.
As a teacher, I'm sure you've asked yourself what your principal does all day not only during the school year but during all those summer weeks when we're not even in the building. Now that I've been given this little sneak peek, it's clear that she has no trouble keeping busy!
There were only eight (8!) things on the list. After about six(ish) hours of work, I was able to complete three things on the list. I plan to knock out at least one more of those jobs after dinner.
Please don't think I'm complaining. I'm actually grateful for the insight to an administrator's day. What I've accomplished today took a lot of work and time, but I'm proud of the products that came out of that effort. I can't wait to keep learning and growing in my role as a teacher and an aspiring administrator!
