Yup. I had admin go in and change a grade for players. I screenshot that so fast and reported them to the Superintendent. Nothing was done. But I tried.

Exactly. They’re called student athletes because they’re students first! I’m grateful to have worked with coaches who hold their students accountable for their grades before they can play

I appreciate good coaches. Student is misbehaving or not doing work, talk to coach or just "threaten to" and it's usually taken care of.

If only that were true. I had a football player punch a kid in front of me. He got sent home and then came back that afternoon for practice. Never missed a practice or a game 🤦🏻♀️

there's a difference between changing grades and allowing an athlete to extend the assignment because they have one day to do and it's a game that's far away so they don't get back home until past 11

Heck no. When I was a coach, I told my athletes that they were students first and athletes second. And I actually did bench an athlete for not completing work and having an F in a class.

Teacher and mom of an honor student athlete. No to giving them grades, but a little grace should be extended during their sport’s season. (1)

The REALLY frustrating part is when you start letting a coach know weeks in advance the kid is not doing work in class but nothing changes until the kid has an F. Then you start hearing back!

As a coach, I expect the STUDENT-athletes to take care of their grades. I never beg to pass a kid, I ask why they failed so I can help them next time.
