I wanted to commet to Tammy who wants to be a Principal. I can see you are much more interested in administration than I am, but we are both working to help students in school. Maybe someday I will think about going for my masters and persuing that as well. I noticed that you will be makeing more money than I am too. The aveage wage in Texas is around $70,000, but the national average is about $86,000.000. Maybe I should look a little closer at that. Good luck
