Re: Thoughts on Job Switch?

I have done a lot of different things

Time with kids is #1

Self directed or project directed vs crisis or problem directed is great.

Step up or down is not as important as cutting edge and increased knowlage.

I say go for it it sounds great

Summer is awesome

Subject: Thoughts on Job Switch?

Hello Colleagues,
I am wondering if any of you have wrestled with the possibility of
changing job titles/duties? I am considering a move from Director of
Technology to Integrations Specialist if the powers will allow.
My questions are these,
has anyone else out there done this and how did it go?
would doing this be considered a step down or across?
would/should I expect a pay decrease?
do you Tech Integration Specialists out there work a 10 month
teacher
contract or a 12 month staff contract?
My reasons for thinking about this in case that helps with advice are the
following.
i would like to spend more time with my two young and (1) health
challenged children.
summers off would rock
i find that being Director has made me type in bulleted lists too
much.
tech integration is what I love, being the director was the only
choice
when i started here.


Any other thoughts on this would be greatly valued.

Thanks for all your thoughts on the matter, as always.
