I know this is a stretch but I am moving back into my house and need to work in the Temple area. I have already resigned and my wife has a job at Temple ISD. Thank you for your time and consideration.

coachbennett5@yahoo.comDear Administrator:
This letter and attached resume are in regard to the secondary coaching/teaching position that has become available for the 2010-2011 school year. I am currently the Athletic Director, Head Football Coach and Head Baseball Coach at Coolidge ISD. The Coolidge Yellow Jacket football team advanced to the playoffs for the first time in 6 years in my first year as the Head Football Coach. We advanced to the Bi-district round of the playoffs as the runner-up in District 11-A sixman. As the Head Baseball Coach I have resurrected a program that has been dormant for the last 10 years. During the 2006-2007 school year the Volleyball team, the Girls and Boys Basketball team all reached the playoffs. I have coached Bi-district qualifier and created one program from scratch. I teach 6th grade World History, 7th grade Texas History, 8th grade American History and one section of Senior Government.
I graduated from the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor with a Bachelors degree in Business Management. At UMHB I was a football player and student assistant coach, assisting in the film room. Since graduation I have run everything from distribution routes to restaurants to football teams. I also attended Tarleton State University where I played wide receiver and ran track. While attending Copperas Cove High school I played wide receiver, ran track, and was on the powerlifting team.
My goals for the future are to establish a teaching/coaching career that can challenge me as well as allowing me to help students grow as people and become strong members of society. I thank you for your time and consideration. Please feel free to contact me at the above phone numbers and/or email address.
Thank you,
Christopher Bennett
