In Protest at the firing of Coach Chad Zitzner
- by: MVLA Community
- recipient: Mountain View High School
We the undersigned wish that the Mountain View High School Athletics Department retains Chad Zitzner as coach for the basketball and badminton teams.
He has proven to be an exemplary and outstanding coach during his 10 years at the school. Coach Zitzner, or Coach Z, has not only taught students how to discipline themselves, but also to motivate each other, further contributing to not only Mountain View High's athletics but also its overall quality in education.
Experience not only counts, but nourishes a familiarity, and such familiarity is crucially necessary in developing the trust students need in faculty members to create a well-knit family at Mountain View High. Furthermore, family is exactly what we, the people of the MVLA community, desire, and over the past 10 years Chad Zitzner has become an invaluable member of said family.
We feel that it would be a hasty and unwise decision for a completely new Athletic Director to fire Coach Z prior to 1) consulting athletes who have trained with him and 2) seeing him coach. Displacing an important member of the Mountain View High family without personally evaluating his contribution is unfair both to Coach Z and to the athletes who he has mentored and helped grow both on and off of the court. Furthermore, it would be in the new Athletic Director's best interest that he did not uproot members of the community and insert new ones, as he himself would be new to the community and open to its embrace or disapproval.
In summation, Coach Z is an integral member of the Mountain View High family, and family, as the saying goes, means no one gets left behind.
