Use stimulus money to add School Administration Managers (SAMs)

President Obama and the federal government are providing stimulus money to state and local governments and school districts with established priorities of providing additional jobs with a quick turnaround. The expectation is that these new positions will show results in terms of success and support for local and state initiatives. School districts, and specifically school principals, are overwhelmed in today’s educational systems with additional responsibilities for student achievement, staff development and ongoing management issues within their buildings. With this as a rationale, school districts might want to consider adding School Administration Manager positions to some or all of their buildings using federal stimulus money.
