[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting post about coaches first.  Maybe they are confusing boys schools as I cannot think of a 6-9th grade teacher who was hired as a coach "first."  The varsity baseball coach is a 6th grade teacher, and is one of the best teachers at the school.  He had previous teaching experience too, but turned out to be fantastic -- motivating, organized, and very inspirational.  More importantly, a natural teacher and my son really enjoyed him as a teacher (though to be honest he was a bit afraid of him too!).  Otherwise some of the other teachers help coach, but none of them were hired as coaches first.  I think anyone interested in STA should not rely on some of the info posted here, even if from supposed "alums" or "parents."  Get a second opinion!

I agree.   Contact the school's Director of Admissions who is also the school's head varsity soccer coach or chat with the asst. director who is the head varsity basketball coach. [/quote]

And if they were first hired as coaches what difference does it make?   Any less qualified for the multiple jobs performed?  NO.   Athletic adults who are also well educated.   Fine with me and if any of you don't like it feel free to apply elsewhere.[/quote]
