At the daycare center I worked at, the director wasn't responsible for daily lesson planning -- the teachers got to do that. The director was the one who interviewed with parents, did all the registration & administrative stuff, scheduling & menus, did training for us, collected payments, and dealt with parents if there were any issues. She did function as a substitute when we were stuck, but I don't think that was the best arrangement by any means. She had her own work to do and didn't really have the time to do someone else's job too. Basically she was the boss, manager, supervisor and secretary, all in one.

I don't know if that's typical across the board, but that's alot of what she did at our center.

DBug is right. The Director is in charge of all the Admin stuff and all the other stuff she listed. My job included looking over all the teachers lesson plans each week and make sure they were posted for parents etc...but the teachers planned their lessons.
