UHSAA told board to consider coaches’ differing roles before applying rule R277322
Summary
Member Lear said the Utah High School Activities Association appreciates working with the board but expressed concern about rule R277322 and requested that the board consider the variety of coaching roles and employee types before a broad application of the rule.
Member Lear reported to the board that he met with representatives of the Utah High School Activities Association (UHSAA), who praised collaboration with the State Board and asked to be involved in further discussion of rule R277322.
“They did express some concern about R277322,” Member Lear said, and asked that the board acknowledge “that there are many coaches in differing levels of participation with students” and consider whether the rule would appropriately apply to all those employee types. He said UHSAA would like to be part of a wider conversation about how the rule affects various roles.
Member Lear framed the UHSAA comments as a request for engagement rather than a specific motion or recommendation recorded on the board floor. The board did not take formal action on the rule during the meeting and no referral to committee or staff was announced on the record.
The transcript records the rule as R277322; no statutory citation or specific disciplinary language was read into the record during this item.
