CO-Head coaches for SPHS Boy's Basketball?

After first voting to approve the non-voluntary transfer of varsity basketball coach Jeff Boos to the Freshman Boys BBall coach for the 2007-08 school year, and then voting to approve the hire of Jay Swanson as the new Varsity Boys BBall coach for the 2007-08 school year, the school board and the district have come to an agreement to resolve a grievance filed by Boos.

In the school board package this week, there is a copy of the agreement which the board will vote to ratify at the Monday August 27, 2007 Board meeting.

The agreement calls for Boos to either take a year of leave from coaching or coach Freshman Boys BBall for the upcoming school year. For the 2008-09 school year, Boos would then be moved to Co-Head Coach of the Varsity Boys BBall team.

Boos will also be subject to an Improvement Plan through the 2008-09 school year. Unless he elects to take an unpaid year off from coaching, Boos retains the varsity Head Coach pay grade for 10 years service.
