Parents urge North Hills School Board to address varsity football staffing, seek hiring plan by Jan. 26
Summary
Parents and community members told the North Hills School District board Dec. 2 that the varsity football program has lost coaches and lacks offseason structure, asking for a written plan by Jan. 26, 2026 that outlines hiring, roles, budgets and transparency around stipends.
Casey Ellis, speaking for 24 families of North Hills football student-athletes, told the board Dec. 2 that the program’s coaching staff declined from 17 coaches in 2023 to 11 this year, creating safety and development risks and placing athletes at a competitive disadvantage. "This places our athletes at a competitive and developmental disadvantage long before they step onto the field," Ellis said, asking the district for a written plan by Jan. 26, 2026 that anticipates selecting a new head coach and hires for offensive coordinator, defensive coordinator, quarterback coach, offensive line coach and certified strength-and-conditioning staff.
