That's specifically from the Jeezus-y homeschool-centric baseball academy and travel team that actually employees him. One district, Southlake Carroll (they of the "rich racists" NBCNews podcast and just generally obnoxious try-hards), had him listed as an authorized outside coach. So not exactly from a school, but absolutely and horrifically education-adjacent.
No worries though! There was also the nominally public charter school in San Angelo, which still has their Christ-centered mission on their about page from when they were a creepy Christian private school, who just had to fire the football staff and half the adminsitration for giving a bunch of kids rhabdo and then covering it up. Their sister school had to fire all the kindergarten(!) teachers because they marched misbehaving children around the room so the other kids could shout "shame!" and point.
I work on a ski team helping set up the course and not even directly interacting with athletes (unless theirs an injury, we’re sort of the first responder to stabilize and radio to patrol if necessary). Just in order to do that job I have to spend 2-3 hours each season reviewing Safe Sport courses that train us to spot, report and prevent creeps like that from abusing children. And it’s not even difficult, if you have at least half a (non-perverted) brain, it’s mostly common sense.
Getting a letter like this as a parent would be calling national news worthy level of creepy.
Fucking insane Christian language makes it even creepier. This sounds like enabler bullshit and should get reported to authorities on its own.
