Resident tells board he sees a "double standard" across programs and asks for change
Summary
During public comment, a resident identified as Eric urged the Joseph City Unified District board to address what he described as a double standard in support and discipline across programs and athletics, and said he will keep raising the issue until changes occur.
During the meeting's public-comment period, a resident identified in the transcript as Eric addressed the board to raise concerns about what he described as inequitable treatment across district programs and athletics.
Eric said he had coached football this year and asserted the district is applying a "double standard," with some people receiving leniency while others face intense scrutiny. "We have a massive double double standard problem that I've witnessed personally," Eric said, and urged the board to make "big changes" so all programs and sports can succeed and be encouraged by administration.
Board members thanked Eric for his comments. The public remarks were entered into the record; no immediate board action was taken in direct response during the meeting.
The board later discussed related administrative and personnel items (resignations, hiring and staffing), which administration said would be addressed depending on enrollment and FTE calculations.
