Athletics update: sponsor reduces cash support but continues coverage; coaching hires approved
Summary
The board heard an athletics update: a sponsor will no longer provide a previously expected $5,000 donation but will continue to provide trainer coverage at events; the board also accepted a resignation from the girls'track coach and approved multiple coaching hires and staff contracts.
Athletics staff reported that a longtime sponsor will continue to provide on-site trainer coverage at team events but will not provide the $5,000 sponsorship check the district had previously received. Athletic leaders said the continued coverage is valuable for safety at practices and competitions even though the sponsor's direct cash support was reduced.
Separately the board accepted the resignation of the girls'track coach effective at season end and approved multiple coaching contracts, including head wrestling and girls'wrestling appointments. The superintendent and activities staff explained the hires and said any vacancy postings for assistant positions would be advertised as required.
