Central Administration
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Central Administration is the leading or preseding body or group of people, and the highest administrative department who oversee all lower departments of an organization. In most cases, a school or school district will have a leading group of people as a part of Central Administration. These terms overrank the principal, and may include Superintendent(education), Chief Operating Officer, School Headmaster, and/or other leadership roles in one or more specific department. People on Central Administration are usually appointed by a board, such as a school board. They are comparable to positions such as a Chief executive officer. They rank over all other administration, requiring leadership skills. Central Administrative Staff have an executive oversight and supervision on school and/or school district administration.
