So... are we in a place where we can talk about teachers with little classroom experience (>5 years) becoming administrators? Can we also talk about how that trend tends to favor male educators?

Because I don’t want to talk about the Sec of Ed nom without talking about that.
Like, I am uninterested in US Sec of Ed classroom experience hot takes unless we start getting real about leadership in education.
