It could be anything from managing the main office to providing support to the principal. I worked for a small independent school so I was doing both. I was taking calls from parents, doing school announcements, watching kids with discipline problems, scheduling appointments for the board. It really all depends. It can be stressful but what’s nice about it is that it’s a cycle that you familiarize yourself with every year and with every year you get into the swing of it and figure things out.
Were you off for the summer and all the same holidays? And did you get paid all year round?
I have friends that were, and yes very stressful! You are the gatekeeper and information bucket for all! Not to mention the kids and the parents.
I’d love a Job like that
It's very stressful. It's more than a one person job.
