COACH SELECTION

It will be the policy of the Moosabec Community School District to select coaches by the following procedure:

A designated selection committee will be established. The selection committee will be composed of the Principal of Jonesport-Beals High School and either the Superintendent of Schools or the school’s Athletic Director; (Note: Both should be members of the committee, if at all possible.) In addition the committee will consist of members of the Board appointed at the May Board meeting, except in the year of policy adoption, for the ensuing school year. The Principal of Jonesport-Beals High School will serve as the chairperson of the selection committee and will be responsible for calling the necessary meetings. The meetings will be scheduled, in as much as possible, to allow for all selection committee members to be in attendance.

The selection committee will review all applications for a coaching position and select the candidates they desire to interview. Based on the interview and other relevant data the selection committee will recommend their choice to the Superintendent who, if in agreement, will make a recommendation to the Board . In the event the Superintendent would recommend a different candidate than the selection committee and an agreement cannot be reached, then the full Board will interview both candidates. If the selection committee feels there are an insufficient number of applicants for a position or no satisfactory applicant for the position, then the position will be re-advertised and the selection process will be repeated. In the event the Board rejects the recommendation of the selection committee; the selection committee may either recommend another candidate from the existing applicants or re-advertise the position and repeat the selection process.
