Why I want to become an administrator...

I suppose the truth is that I'm not sure that I do want to become an administrator. I'm very afraid that I'll miss sharing my literary friends with my students. I've enjoyed working on the Continuous Improvement Plan, and I've also enjoyed sharing new ideas and technology with my co-workers; however, I'm not sure that I would be up the disciplinary part of  administration.  I've heard that members from earlier cohorts have felt the same way, but have eventually decided that they could do that part of the job.  I'm definitely uncomfortable with the financial portion of the job. I'm just not great with numbers. I think I would like a job working with teachers to streamline their jobs and to provide them with inspiration for new and improved lessons. I would like to help them feel less frazzled and more excited about teaching. I love learning which is probably the most important reason that I have for pursuing this degree. I would probably have fifty degrees if I could afford to continue my education to that extent.
