Abstract
This paper examines the relative status of women school
administrators using data from a representative, national sample.
Results indicate that the administrators varied significantly on
prestige-related variables (salary, number of people supervised, and
size of district) and that it was possible to differentiate distinct
groups of women administrators using these variables. Very few (7.5%)
held high status position, while a substantial minority (32%) were in
relatively low status posts. Members of the status groups also differed
from each other on a variety of career-related, demographic, and lifestyle
related variables.
