South Range restructures athletic directors' jobs

NORTH LIMA

The South Range school board has approved a restructuring of its athletic director position.

The district has previously had a middle-school AD and a high-school AD. The new AD will oversee sports for grades seven through 12.

In the new roles, the new AD and assistant AD can have only one supplemental contract from the district. Instead of having a ticket manager for the middle school and high school, there will be just one position.

“In years past, our ADs, middle school and high school, were able to coach as well as be an AD. The time and attention needed for that position, it’s difficult to hold more than one position,” said South Range schools Superintendent Dennis Dunham.
