I believe that most school districts require that a posting be placed If not on job boards at least on their website. I know our school district and the district my wife works in they must publicly post all jobs

Districts must hire from within first, so the social studies teacher with no lacrosse experience must be given the job if he wants it. After that, must be a certified coach. LI teachers unions RUN the schools, never mind the BOE or PTA.
I unfortunately have to agree. We have coaches at our hs with ZERO coaching knowledge coaching at the varsity just because they are district teachers. They have no qualifications and no playing experience. Some are good people but have no idea what they're doing. This isn't just a casual observation, I've spoken to the AD and he said his hands are tied because of the policies.
