Reply #10: I learned how much times have changed when my nieces went to high school.

Waaaaay back in my day, all of the coaches were full-time staff of the school who had teaching degrees and had to round out their day by teaching a couple academic classes in addition to their coaching duties. My nieces graduated a couple years ago and their school was set up so that a lot of the hands on coaching was done by part-time employees, many who were recent graduates of that same high school. They had to report to full-time faculty members, but not all of them were supervised as closely as they should have been. They had some trouble with a young man who was a volleyball coach having girls from the team at his apartment.
