Every school district in North America has a superintendent. But what occupies their time? That was the core question of this project. This study looked at how school superintendents in British Columbia, Canada, spent their time during the school year. This study explored the demographics of superintendents and their school districts, the level of responsibility that superintendents reported on various leadership and management tasks, the time spent in key areas of their work, and their perceptions of their ability to control their time and the impact of COVID-19 on their work. All superintendents in British Columbia were asked to complete a questionnaire for this study. Of the 60 superintendents, 59 participated (98%). This survey was conducted via email in the spring of 2021. Nine key themes were established through the research: (1) Superintendent gender has an impact; (2) Student population size matters -- At least until about 6,000 students; (3) Some stunning numbers with experience, but little impact on their work; (4) Superintendents are drawn into the urgent; (5) Superintendents are committed to being educational leaders; (6) Learning leader vs. community leader; (7) Boards matter; (8) Control of time is a matter of perspective; and (9) COVID-19 created complexity and opportunity. BC School Districts have been lauded as some of the top performing in the world. This study showed the complexity of the work of their top leaders and the commitment of the superintendents of BC to be educational leaders for their students, staff, and community.
