Accreditation Standards

I received a tip today about the source of the accreditation standards that Mr. Cahill refers to in his comments found here.

The standards are set by the State Board of Education whose members are, at least according to those biographies posted online, teachers.

Why wouldn't teachers be in favor of more administration positions given that those jobs are filled by teachers and of course, pay more than a teaching position?

It now makes perfect sense why the high schools have three associate principals and some positions that even a school board trustee doesn't totally understand.

Thanks, Tipster.

As a teacher I have no problem with administration positions but what is a good ratio of teachers to admin?
