Coach urges board to add high school baseball; trustees asked to consider levy messaging
Summary
A longtime coach and staff member urged the board to pursue high-school baseball and suggested linking the program to an upcoming levy to broaden voter support; board members said they will consider the idea.
During public comment, Greg Adkins — a longtime district staff member and youth baseball coach — urged trustees to begin planning for high-school baseball, noting neighboring districts have programs and that parents and community groups are prepared to support team start-up.
Adkins recommended the board consider including a commitment to add high-school baseball as part of future levy messaging to attract broader voter support, saying that promising baseball could bring in voters who might otherwise decline a funding measure. The board thanked him and acknowledged community interest; no formal action was taken.
What’s next: Trustees did not direct immediate action but said they would consider the suggestion as levy planning continues.
