The word on the street in Deweyville is that they are about to lose two of the great coaches. Eventhough this is their first year in Deweyville, both of these men have made a huge impact on the athletic program. Coach Cupples (varsity baseball coach) and Coach Mitchell (varsity girls basketball coach) certainly do not need to be let go. They both do their jobs and do them well. The kids respect them and love playing for them.  There has been several people voicing their opinions about why both of these men SHOULD keep their jobs but it isn't looking good. The board is supposed to make final decision on April 4. It is going to truly impact the program in Deweyville as these coaches have brought great things to the district. The kids are going to suffer greatly if something is not done to keep them. There will be a serious coach shortage and coaches are going to burn out early on in the year and it will show.

Not to mention he is a Science teacher. How many coaches do you know that are science teachers? Aren't too many. Hard to get rid of a guy when he fills a hole as a Science teacher and is also a solid ball coach.

Watch for the private schools to really explode all over the state,big money will start pouring into these schools especially at the lower levels to keep small class sizes for a better teacher student ratio.

I wish that were true but I doubt it.  They are just too damn expensive for that to happen.  I'm sure most parents would prefer sending their kids to a private school but it just costs too much.

Is the same percentage of administration staff being cut as teachers?

I really don't know the ratio of administrators to teachers, but I believe, that if your district needs to reduce teachers by say 10%, then shouldn't administration be cut by the same amount?

I know that administration is important, but are they as important as the teacher in the classroom?  I don't know....that's why I am asking.

Ive been looking at this topic for the past few days and I finally have to say something. It is really hard for me to understand why so many teachers and coaches are losing their jobs. These are the people who spend a great deal of time with our youth guiding and directing them. Teaching them to do their best and not to give up when times get rough. These are in my opinion 2 of the most important lessons anyone can learn. With all the cuts going on, what is this saying to the seniors this year and to those who graduated last year who plan to become future teachers and coaches.

      What the writer stated wrt crossover votes in the primary/runoff: "Covey and his supporters Paxton and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said Phelan only won because Democrats crossed over to vote in the Republican Primary for him. Paxton said Covey’s campaign identified “at least” 1,442 Democrats who voted early in Jefferson County in the primary runoff. Texas does not have party registration, but a voter’s primary voting history is public. The Covey campaign has not released its methodology behind its claim, but  This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up  by The Texan news website found that 9% of Republican voters in the March District 21 primary had voted in one of the previous four Democratic primaries. However, only 5% of that group had voted in all four previous Democratic primaries. What Phelan’s opponents did not mention is historically Democratic Jefferson County is undergoing a political transition towards the Republican party — the county judge switched his affiliation to the GOP in 2017 — so many residents have a mixed primary voting history. And Phelan’s allies in the House dismissed the idea that liberals swung the election. "I knocked on doors, hundreds and hundreds of doors, made calls for Dade,” Republican Rep. Jeff Leach, R-Plano, said on Mark Davis’ radio program Wednesday. “I did not speak to a single Democrat down here in HD21. Not a single one." "

      Will Biden Be The Democratic Nominee For President?

      He's with it enough to do what he's told, beginning day 1 when he signed the order to revoke the Keystone Pipeline project.  But more recently, he's protecting the DOJ, as well as himself ...  This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up

      Most 75-80 year Olds have some type of cognitive impairment. If you are asking if Biden has dementia then my answer is no. That is a Republican talking point. If you all think he has dementia what type do you think he has?
