Board approves shared assistant golf coach amid spike in participation; stipend set at $1,785
Summary
Facing more than 50 sign-ups for golf, staff requested a shared assistant coach to improve supervision and safety at two practice sites. The board approved a shared assistant boys/girls golf coach with a stipend of $1,785; one member recused due to coaching role.
Athletic staff told the board high participation in golf—more than 50 students signed up—created supervision and scheduling needs that justify adding a shared assistant coach. Coaches and board members discussed safety when only one coach is on site, facility-sharing with public golfers and whether participation ratios warrant broader review across sports.
After discussion the board approved a motion to add a shared assistant boys/girls golf coach for the 2026 season with a stipend equal to a varsity assistant ($1,785). One board member recused from the vote because he serves as the head boys coach; the motion passed by voice vote. Board members asked administration to continue reviewing ratios and participation trends across athletics.
