Thesis (M.Ed.), Memorial University of Newfoundland, 2000. Education Bibliography: leaves [39]-[40] The role of the female administrator is indeed a challenging and multi-faceted one. Various barriers exist to female administrators being adequately represented in administrative positions both at the school and district levels. This internship examined the roles and responsibilities of the female school administrator and chronicles the challenges the female administrator faces on a daily basis. In addition to chronicling those experiences at the school level, this report also examines the literature on women in school administration and what it suggests needs to be done in order to increase female representation in educational administration.
