The school board finally agreed to reinstate Coach West. My bones feel heavy from this fight but seeing him back on the field makes the exhaustion worth it. We are going to keep watching the administration to ensure he stays exactly where he belongs.

Rashad West, Southeast High alum who coached the Seminoles for the last two seasons, stepped down Nov. 9, 2017. The move came after the Seminoles had to forfeit games for using an ineligible player, ending their playoff hopes. This error was an administrative error that shouldn't have reflected on Coach West or his staff. We believe Coach West was backed into a corner by School Administration prompting him to resign. Coach West has revitalized not only the Southeast High School Football Program, but also the entire school and alumni network. We cannot allow him to be pushed out of the door because of what we believe to be personal agendas among members of the school's administration. We need your help to keep Coach West as Head Coach and Mentor to our Student-Athletes.

The response from the community has been heavy and keeps me going despite the daily exhaustion of fighting this school board. I have been spending my time in meetings that lead nowhere but I am refusing to let them brush this aside. We are not backing down until they acknowledge that this was an administrative failure instead of a coaching one.

Best coach I ever had. He made an impacted in my life and others. He taught us everything how the game of football suppose to be played competively and just enjoying the sport that we all love
This truly falls on administration whom is accountable for student records . Coach West was used as a,scapegoat! It's a shame that they have tarnished not only his career, but have hurt all the kids on the team and their hard work that Coach West was so instrumental in coaching this kids in a positive way that took them to be in the playoffs just to be taking away so unfairly!
Wrong person resigned. This sends a message to our children saying it is ok to do wrong and blame others if you can.
Rashad West is an honest, stand up guy that wants to make a difference in the lives of these young people. I have know him for 27 years and have never known him to be anything other than a caring person. His place is right there beside those boys coaching them. Please reconsider his position as head coach of our Seminoles
We want and need Coach West Back !!! He did very well with our boys !!! Not only was he at the Varsity Games ! He was there supporting at the JV Games too !!! I really admire the time and Dedication he put forth with those boys !!! On and Off the Field!!! So Please Bring Coach West Back !!!
Coach West is needed
Bring him back
