Good luck to all involved in however this turns out. I have to reply to some things posted about coaching salaries/booster money. Every year a school is required to complete a Title IX report and send the the KHSAA by April 15. Included in that report is the salary and incentives for all coaches provided by the school district/boosters/or other sources. The principal, superintendent, and chairman of the BOE is required to sign that the information is correct. So, are people saying that these people are committing fraud and allowing tax evasion? The KHSAA does random Title IX audits yearly which include several items including interviews with school administrators, coaches, student athletes, boosters and parents. Therefore, the three people mentioned above would sign that form knowing about some inappropriate funding of a coaches' salary.

It is very easy to get around those Title IX issues in regards to coaches salaries. The only salaries that are included in the Title IX audits and reports are those directly tied to sports. Any salary a coach is paid outside of sports is exempt, for example a lot of coaches are given positions of full time subs, alternative school principal or things like that and do little or nothing at the school other than coach.
