Abstract

Educational administration in the United States developed as an extra-duty or part-time assignment. As such an assignment it was seen basically as responsibility someone had to take and that almost any good teacher could take if he would. It was seen as something one did from common sense and learned to do simply from doing it. It was seen as an assignment with little prestige and with an extra stipend. There were a great many such starting places in the many small schools. In the city schools, entry into administration and progress in it developed to a large degree on the principle of understudy and succession.
