Re: Why??"
A point in favor of the OP - Most quality jobs have a SPECIFIC job description outlining responsibilities. FAR too often, school districts load too much on one individual and hide behind the "other duties as needed" clause. All "duties" involve a time component. 9-5 jobs may increase or decrease the duties they ask of you, but you still go home at 5 and see your family. When districts get the jukebox mentality about band programs, it puts tremendous stress on the director that already teaches a full class schedule with all that entails. The extra duties almost ALWAYS take away from their personal/family time. We wonder why the last 4 years have seen the teacher resignation record broken in each year CONSECUTIVELY. The OP is obviously under stress. We need to be NOT LIKE ECERY OTHER social media site and attack perceived weakness. It's not weakness to say you're overloaded. The OP didn't, but it is implied. Be more helpful and supportive, people. There's more than enough mean to go around.
