MASON CITY – Mohawk football coach Justin Penner spoke to the Mason City School Board Monday night about proposed cuts to coaching positions throughout the school district.
Penner spoke about what he called the “three s’s” of coaching: “safety, supervision and skill development” and spoke of not accepting mediocrity in athletics and in life in general from young people.
“This coaching profession is perhaps the most efficient means of getting to young people in our front lines,” Penner said, “and dollar for dollar, you will not find a more efficient methods of teaching life skills to our young people.”
The school board acted to dismiss all the proposed cuts to coaching positions that the administration brought forward.
