The Issue

For 15 years, Coach Prescott has been more than just a coach to the girls' soccer and football teams; he's been a cornerstone in creating a legacy. Under his guidance, the teams have collectively achieved five state titles in girls' soccer and one in football. His influence has transformed the soccer program into more than just a group of athletes; it's become a tightly-knit family. This year, a new coaching administration unjustly relieved him of his responsibilities, shaking the foundation he has built and leaving both programs at a crossroads.

Coach Prescott has been integral not only in the athletic achievements of our teams but also in fostering an environment where players feel valued and motivated. His decision-making, training regimes, and personal investment in the students’ lives have driven players to accomplish feats both on and off the field. His dismissal from the coaching roles was abrupt and without transparent justification, leaving the students, parents, and broader community questioning the rationale behind this decision.

With the soccer and football seasons taking place at different times of the year, it is entirely feasible for Coach Prescott to effectively manage both teams. There's no valid reason for excluding such an experienced and invaluable mentor who has consistently dedicated his time and effort to our teams and inspired his players to strive for greatness. The absence of Coach Prescott not only deprives the players of a proven leader but also risks dismantling the supportive team environment he cultivated.

Our goal is to have Coach Prescott reinstated to his coaching positions for both sports. His track record speaks for itself, and when aligned with the emotional and developmental support he offers, the benefits of having him back are undeniable.

I urge the school board and athletic department to reconsider this decision and bring Coach Prescott back to the programs he helped build from the ground up. Sign this petition to show your support for Coach Prescott and the integrity of our teams.
