Dallas ISD Approves Pay Increase for Football Head Coaches

BY THE HUB

Dallas ISD football head coaches will receive a pay increase beginning with the 2022-2023 academic year to retain and attract coaches.

After collecting data from other districts in North Texas, the Dallas ISD Department of Athletics proposed a plan to adjust the current head football coach salary structure.

As a result, the district is providing a one-time salary adjustment of $15,000 to current football head coaches and will adjust the pay range for the position. Future candidates will be hired based on the revised pay range and incumbent information.

This adjustment will place Dallas ISD Head Football Coaches amongst the highest paid within the North Texas competitive market, increasing the average salary to more than $122,000. The pay range will now start at $95,000, up from $84,000.

Additionally, the district will review stipends for all other coaching positions.
