Varsity Swim Coach As the leader of a 150 student team, work with two assistants and the dive coach to foster growth and inclusion for students ranging from state qualifiers to those new to the pool.  The team aims to win championships while making sure each and every participant feels included.  This recipe has led to success both in the pool and more importantly, out of the pool where the team raises money each year for mental health awareness, incorporates off-season lifting for physical and social benefits and creates an environment where everyone is a part of the experience.  Prior head swim coaching experience preferred.  The swim season runs from mid November to late February with daily practices, Monday-Friday, from 3:30-5 pm and meets typically on Friday nights with some on Saturday evenings.  The stipend for this position is up to $5600 for the season.

Head Dance Coach The head dance team coach will be responsible for working with the Director of Student Activities on a vision for the dance team. This could include a model similar to past years as described below or a new model with a distinct fall game season and a distinct winter competition season. Traditionally, selection of the dance team occurs through a tryout process in May.  The program is not a VHSL sport and therefore is able to meet over the summer in preparation for the fall season and/or winter competition season.  The team is supported by a strong parent booster organization with a focus on fundraisers which build interest in dance team in the community, such as one-day clinics and camps.  The team has a long history of kick, pom and game day routines which are performed at each home football game, many home basketball games and in competitions.  The season traditionally has included May tryouts, some summer practices and daily practices starting in August.  The season has culminated in February with the final competitions. The stipend for this position is approximately $4523 for the entire fall and winter season.

The season begins August 4 and runs until late November.  The stipend for the position is up to $6676 depending on time commitment and duties performed.
