It’s why grade checks aren’t run and paperwork and physicals don’t get filed. I know many schools where it’s only one period off. No way can you run sports in today’s world, especially now without an AD and support staff. For instance do you know how much it costs just to get helmets certified every year just to play football? Or the cost of transportation for just one sport? If you pay for that you need to pay for an AD. <br /><br />But isn’t that even more of an argument you can’t be AD and coach and teach and do it all?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31292861.post-77934473463416054782021-01-29T12:36:06.988-08:002021-01-29T12:36:06.988-08:00Until 2 years ago the AD job was just a stipend at...Until 2 years ago the AD job was just a stipend at Amador Valley. Instead of teaching 5 periods of PE, our AD was considered full-time just teaching 3 periods of PE and the extra periods off were his time to perform the duties of AD. He was also the baseball coach. Only last year did the district hire a full time athletic director, requiring an administrative credential. If that's how it worked here, I'd be surprised if lots of districts aren't still that way.Coach Ozzienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31292861.post-65368479710656273092021-01-29T11:30:25.789-08:002021-01-29T11:30:25.789-08:00I guess so but no way can you be fair as an AD and...I guess so but no way can you be fair as an AD and coach. Shouldn’t be allowed. So football gets no extra perks when you AD is the head coach? Who makes sure they are doing the AD job when he’s coaching?<br /><br />And with all the rules and grades and coaches I feel for any AD who has to teach. It’s just wrong.
