Coaches
St. Stephen School has many sports teams that require Coaches. Anyone wanting wanting to coach must contact the Athletic Director prior to the season in which they would like to coach. Coaches are chosen by the Athletic Director and School Administration. All coaches must submit a background check and complete the Virtus Training.
