I'm glad to hear that Coach Adams has found a program that he can work on improving, but I guess my biggest question is, "Does he have a teaching degree"? Does this job come with a teaching expectation in the classroom? What would he be teaching, if he holds a teaching certificate?
Like I said, I'm glad that he's found a program to rebuild/improve. His biggest attribute in this situation would be that he is a teacher at East Chicago Central, so he can see what his players do in the classrooms, and talk with their teachers about how they are, not only with their grades, but with their classroom attitude about getting work done, turned in, and not being a distraction in the classroom.

His bio while head coach included this: He graduated from NWMSU in 1990 with a Bachelor of Arts in physical education. Adams earned his master’s degree in education at Valparaiso in 1997 I don't know what you need to get a teaching license but I would think a masters in education would probably qualify. |

I don't know precisely, either. It varies by state, for example. In some states certification is usually accomplished along with the bachelor's, even if it's a significant amount of work on top of a "normal" bachelor's. In other states it might come close to a master's.
If you have a bachelor's in something else, getting your teaching certificate on top of that might come close to a master's.
But, presumably you can also get a master's in education (or a PhD, D. Ed, etc.) without getting a teaching certificate.

Since I have looked into this before here are the Indiana State requirements per the Indiana State Board of Education: www.doe.in.gov/news/2009/07-July/documents/ProposedTeacherLicensingChangesSummary100107_001.pdf Indiana’s Rules for Educator Preparation and Accountability (REPA) Updated Jan. 7, 2010. Requires Emphasis on Content-Knowledge. Changes revise the licensing requirements to emphasize teachers’ content knowledge. (skipped elementary teachers section) o Secondary teachers (grades 5 to 12) must receive a baccalaureate degree consisting of any applicable content-area major — as well as a minor in education. The Education minor usually consists of 5 or 6 education classes plus student teaching for a semester plus some other classes that you probably might have taken previously (child psych, etc) |
