What a disgrace. Entitled, elitist spoiled parents.

I would suspend the whole program until the issue is addressed head on with the parents who caused this man to resign.

Don't pour any more money into coaching salaries until the idiot bullies in the stands know how to act. Absolutely shameful.

I would agree with you, but I imagine it is as the coach says in the article, "I think they’re trying their best, but with the dynamics of it being a school you pay go to, I think sometimes their hands are tied".

Parents, specifically the vocal minority who are aggressive, dangerous, and of the shouldn't-be-allowed-to-have-children sort, are gaining power over many schools now, and I can definitely see that being true for a private school like Spellman which simply isn't prestigious in the least yet still charges a premium.

I feel like that's most private schools.
