It was a career so illustrious that White was once awarded Principal of the Year for the entire Atlanta Public Schools district.<\/p>\n<p>He said he left mostly to be free of the daily demands. But having so much free time got old. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was just hanging out with the cat, and it was a little lonely,&#8221; White said. <\/p>\n<p>White said he really started missing his school community. He knew he couldn&#8217;t be principal again since they had already hired a new one. But when a different position opened up, he fired off his resume immediately.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I said, &#8216;Hmm, OK, that&#8217;s interesting.&#8217; I said, &#8216;Absolutely, apply,'&#8221; Holly Brookins, the new principal at Burgess-Peterson, told CBS News about when White notified her of his plans to apply for the position.<\/p>\n<p>His job title is site manager, but he is basically the handyman. He does everything from power washing bathrooms and inspecting fire extinguishers to cleaning gutters. <\/p>\n<p>A lot of managers like to say every job is important. But how many truly believe it and truly show it? Not many, and not like this. And although he&#8217;s no longer climbing the ladder, metaphorically, he doesn&#8217;t seem to mind in the least.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yeah, I&#8217;m one of the bottom rungs, if you look at in a hierarchical way,&#8221; White said. &#8220;\u2026 It doesn&#8217;t bother me at all\u2026 I still feel like I&#8217;m contributing meaningfully to a place I really care about.&#8221;<\/p>\n<section
