Board OKs two additional junior-high volleyball coaches to avoid cutting players
Summary
The board approved adding two paid coaches at $2,400 each to expand junior-high volleyball to four teams so about 50 players can be accommodated; funding will come from player fees rather than the general fund.
The Rock Ridge School Board voted 6–1 to add two paid junior-high volleyball coaches to split roughly 50 players into four teams and avoid cutting about 25 girls. The district reported the proposed coaches would be paid $2,400 each and that player dues (about $200 per player) would cover the cost rather than the general fund.
"We have 50 or so girls in junior high volleyball... they would like to add 2 more teams," the chair said in presenting the recommendation. Board members confirmed the additional coach pay would be offset by fees and that each team would have approximately 12 players. The motion to add coaches was made and passed with one dissent.
Administrators said no general-fund dollars were required and the added teams would allow more students to participate in school athletics.
