Are you in one of those counties in SC that has several different school districts, with school boards, school superintendents, and lots of administrators for each?

Yes, there are 3 districts in this area. This coming week they are all sending all of their administrators and district office staff to a "retreat" at an oceanfront condominium for a full week at Myrtle Beach. Courtesy of the local tax payers (unknown to them). Granted, this comes two weeks after the finance director cut 9 summer school teaching positions to "save money". The parents of the kids in summer school were promised no more than a 6-1 student teacher ratio so they could get the most benefit from remediation. It ended up being over 15 kids in one class, which defeated the purpose.
