school director

Campus chief executive

A school director is the person responsible for overseeing the administration and operations of a school.

The title is more common in private schools, charter schools, and international contexts than in traditional public schools, where principal or superintendent are preferred: The school director announced changes to the curriculum.

In some settings, a school director may oversee multiple campuses or report to a board of trustees.
