III. Describe (use several paragraphs) a general description of your career
(5 pts)
The job of being a high school coach is one that is greatly over seen a lot of times and is not
given the credit it is due. A will be basing the study off of a high school coach in Texas where you will
need to be a teacher in a classroom as well as a coach on the field. In most cases I have come across, a
high school coachs day starts long before school hours begin and usually wont see their familys till late
that night. A coach/teacher is one who knows how to motivate the kids in his classroom as well as make
his athletes push through hard workouts and get them to their peaks in competition.

VII. Summary Statement (after completing the investigative research, summarize the reasons you want to
pursue this profession, or reasons for NOT wanting to pursue this profession)
(1 pts)
After conducting my research I still find myself swaying from the job of coaching and occupational
therapy. The not sitting at a desk all day and staying in shape are factors I really have at my core when
looking for jobs but the very long hours with low pay makes me stray away from coaching. For me, it will
take a little more time to decide where I want to go but I feel myself leaning more towards occupational
therapy and away from coaching.
