The Nugget Newspaper - News and Opinion from Sisters, Oregon

Sisters High School is looking for a new head football coach and a new volleyball coach. The district is advertising for teachers who can fill the shoes of football coach Bob Macauley and volleyball coach Mary Flande.

According to Principal Dennis Dempsey, Flande will become the middle school athletic director next year and Macauley wanted to step down from his position as head football coach. Dempsey noted that Macauley will continue coaching in some role.

No new positions are being created. Dempsey said that two special education teachers and Spanish teacher Marty Evarts resigned this year. The two special education positions have been filled, leaving one position open. Dempsey said the subject area for the open position has not been determined.

The district hopes that whoever fills the open position can take on coaching duties for either volleyball or football.

Once one position is filled, Dempsey said, the school will have to figure out how to fill the other coaching slot.
