In the United States public school system it is customary to call the 
teachers Mr. or Mrs., not Master.  There is a Principal who is the 
head of the school.  In private schools there is a headmaster.  He is 
still called Mr., very seldom called Headmaster although some do.  My 
son goes to a private Military Academy with a Headmaster.
