This fall, I taught 4 preps (math). I didn't mind, but I was very busy. This semester we had to shuffle some things around to address some certain areas, and now I'm the "ISS guy" in the morning and AD planning in the afternoon. I like it.

that may depend upon what you call teaching a class is.
There are too many variables to consider.
You could have 5 classes
but show movies or give free days
and pass everyone.
A teacher is a teacher is a teacher.
IMHO the majority of small school HC/Coach/AD duties
fall more under a clerical, sales, maintenance covering
than teaching.
Man,
ISS with AD planning...
now there's a sweet gig.
Better hang there till they boot cha'.

When I served as the AD/Head Football Coach at Summit Christian Academy, I also served as the Dean of Students but did not have classroom responsibilities. When I was just the Head Football Coach and Dean of Students, I taught 2 classes.

A long time ago, I remember that one of the then two SA papers ran a story about the life of a small town (1A) football coach/ad ... coach, teacher, bus driver, laundry, groundskeeper, trainer ... kinda like how it is if you're at a small private school and have a "full time" job as opposed to a volunteer coach.
Reminds me about the guy who told me once he had a job where he only worked half-days. He could choose to work from 6 am to 6 pm or 6 pm to 6 am.
Oh, and I was listening to Fox Business Channel this evening, John Stossel's show. He was comparing Texas and California and I caught a segment (pretty short, by the way) of "advantages" that California has over Texas. Two examples he gave were that Texas requires professional shampooers to pass two exams and pay a $100 licensening fee and limits athletic coaching to full-time school teachers.

I teach five science classes, from Physics to 8th Grade Physical Science; and yes, I teach. I get one AD prep period in the morning and one Science prep in the afternoon. I sought out to be a teacher, long before I became a coach. There are still several of us out there that take as much pride in our student's educational acievements as we do their athletic.
