Board seeks clarity after data show rising 'administrative' counts; staff points to classification changes
Summary
Trustees questioned apparent growth in administrative headcount even as teacher counts fell. Finance staff said coding changes and reclassification (deans, other roles) altered categories and will provide a year-to-year breakdown to clarify the shift.
Trustees raised concerns that the REP/HR reporting showed more administrators while teacher counts declined. One member said, "Teachers seem to be declining and administrators seem to be increasing," and asked staff to explain the change.
Cassie and other staff explained that changes to how positions are coded for REP reporting (some former instructional or support roles now classified as administrative; addition of deans) can make year-to-year comparisons misleading. Cassie agreed to work with HR (Jill/Cindy) to supply a staffing chart that maps current positions to reporting categories and shows the salary/benefit implications trustees requested.
