1. Why are there so many principals?

• • Every class has about 500 students that an assistant principal is responsible for working with.  The goal is to have a point person for each grade level.  Dr. Weber oversees the entire high school as the Head Principal but Mr. Márquez is the head principal of the 9th grade and the lower house.
