Athletic Coaching Supplements

Coaching supplements will be paid out of local athletic funds, based on the availability of
funding. Athletic booster clubs may NOT pay coaches. Coaches are paid in lump sum in
the month in which the sport coached concludes. Supplements are paid on a percentage of
teaching salary basis, which is listed on this page. Supplements are based on the 2019-
2020 NC teacher salary schedule. Correct supplement calculation is based upon the
timely reporting of coaching assignments and supplements from the school athletic
director to the county athletic director. Non-faculty paid coaches will be paid a stipend
based upon a first-year teacher’s salary.
Head Varsity football coaches and High School Athletic Directors are paid an 11-month
salary.
In the event a school is unable to field a team in a particular sport, that supplement is not
to be used by the school in another capacity.

NOTE: As part of the supplement process, all coaches will complete pre-employment
procedures, including background check and drug test when required. In addition, all
coaches will be evaluated in writing by school and/or athletic administration at the
conclusion of each sport season and these evaluations will be kept on file at the school.
