Coach - Head HS Girls Track (Effective 2026-2027 SCHOOL YEAR)
About The Position
The Head HS Girls Track Coach promotes sportsmanship and fosters good character in student athletes while providing for the safety and welfare of all participants. The coach supervises students in practice areas, locker rooms, buses, and throughout the season, and exercises patience, tolerance, and diplomacy when interacting with players, parents, coworkers, contest officials, and spectators. Because interscholastic activities are an extension of the classroom, the coach’s conduct and interactions with student athletes should reflect that responsibility. This is a temporary, stipend position for the 2026–2027 school year at Santa Rita High School, in the Pantano and Escalante area. The season runs from February into May. The stipend is prorated for days missed during the sports season because of a late start or early termination. The position is not eligible for district benefits.
