The administration of both Keya Paha County Schools and Rock County Public Schools is sending out a great big thank you to those applicants who put their names into the hat for the jobs of head high school volleyball and football. It is with great pleasure for us to announce that coaches for both sports have been filled and the Knight Nation will be having both volleyball and football seasons in 2025! The old adage of "It Takes A Village" is so true. And what wonderful villages we have. Thank you. ❤️ THAT SAID......we are still looking for an assistant high school football coach and assistant junior high football coach. Please reach out to Mike Stephen at [email protected] or Kayla Fischer at [email protected] if you are interested.

The administrations of Keya Paha County School and Rock County Public Schools have been actively engaged in the recruitment of coaches, most urgently in the case of the head football position since February and the head volleyball position since the end of May. At this juncture, the search and recruitment has been in vain. While in the past these extra duties would have been assigned, the education field is experiencing an unprecedented and critical shortage of teachers. Forcing this duty onto staff is counterproductive to fulfilling our most basic duty of educating our students. If suitable head coaches cannot be secured by August 1, the districts may be forced to cancel the 2025 high school football and volleyball seasons. If you or someone you know has the ability and the time to devote to guiding our young men and women on the athletic field, please reach out immediately. Interested applicants may call Keya Paha County Schools at 402-497-3501 or Rock County Public Schools at 402-684-3411. You may also contact Athletic Directors Kayla Fischer at [email protected] or Mike Stephen at [email protected].
