The Tonawanda News features a report on Roy-Hart's AD, Brad Halgash, making a move to the Tonawanda school district.
Here are some snippets from that article...
The Tonawanda City School District has a new athletic coordinator for almost the same price as the one the dismissed earlier this month.
At Tuesday’s regular meeting, the school board abolished the director of health, physical education and athletics position currently occupied by Dawn Bak.
The district held off on replacing Bak immediately, shifting responsibilities to other administration staff while evaluating the future of the position. The athletic director job was one of many eyed by angry residents for the chopping block following the closing of Highland Elementary before the current school year. While the board did abolish the job Tuesday, it also created a new position for coordinator of athletics and physical education that Board President Lynn Casal said comes with nearly the same responsibilities.
While Casal wouldn’t discuss the specific circumstances of Bak’s resignation, she was confident that Bradly Halgash, the newly appointed athletic coordinator, was the right choice to “take the sports program in a new direction.”
Halgash is coming from the Royalton-Hartland Central School District, where he served as a teacher and full-time athletic director during his nine-year tenure. He will be making $58,250 in his first year with Tonawanda schools, approximately $6,750 less than Bak’s salary. Casal said the financial savings didn’t factor into the board’s decision.
