Tapps Jobs in Texas (NOW HIRING)

POSITION SUMMARY

Regents School of Austin seeks a Christ-centered, highly relational, and high-competence Head High School (School of Rhetoric) Baseball Coach to build and lead an aligned 7-12 baseball program. In the proper context, Regents Athletics serves as a formative arena in which students mature in Christ-like character, and coaches lead in a manner that honors God and conveys a positive Christian witness.

This position is a stipend-only coaching role and is no longer tied to a teaching position. The role supports Regents' broader mission to provide a classical, Christian education that equips students to know, love, and practice what is true, good, and beautiful, and to live lives of faithful service to God and man.
