The-Kinkaid-School-Inc

The Kinkaid School was my old high school, so it was like going back home straight out of college. I work as a part-time coach, which means that I have time during the day to work on graduate pre-requirements. Depending on the season, a typical day would start off with middle school practice, then roll into high school practice. Usually I coach the same sport for both middle and high school teams for three seasons. 
While at Kinkaid, I learned how to more effectively manage my time, given the extremely short window of opportunity needed to accomplish all the tasks. My co-workers, some of which were my coaches in high school, treat me with love and respect I have always known and helped me establish a flow from the perspective of coach instead of student.
The hardest part of the job is working with new student-athletes every season and the best part of the job is working with new student-athletes every season.

Although Kinkaid is a bit of an enclave in the western Houston community, its isolation is offset by generous salaries, a strong emphasis on a teacher's personal development and much attention to full emotional, physical, and intellectual development of the children with, in many cases, extraordinary contributions and cooperation from parents and, at the individual school level, a strong administration.  The school changed my life for the better.

I would work on the weekends with students but had the Head Coach or full-time Assistance coach always available if I needed help. The Head Coach and Assistant  were amazing and helped me learn very valuable skills to become a successful debate coach. The students were terrific to work with. They were some of the most polite people I've ever met.

During the time that I was associated with the school, there was a drastic change in the philosophy and environment. When I started I wanted to stay there until I retired, by the time I left I could not wait to leave. This change was most directly related to a change in the school's leadership.

I enjoyed working at Kinkaid as a substitute teacher and summer helper. The kids are respectful and generally listen to directions. The work culture is collaborative and supportive. Given the opportunity, I would work here full-time. I highly recommend!

Great coaches, staff and parents!  The program is a great place for coaches who want to teach and help develop the talents of multi-talented kids.  I enjoy ever aspect of working with this organization.

The week load is a lot and they teach you fast. But the descriptionis understandable and the tasks are doable. It was an overall fulfilling experience especially when I finished my internship
