Hello My Name Is...
Coach Infante

Raised in Donna, Texas, I embarked on my academic journey at Texas Tech University, where I earned my bachelor's degree. Driven by a deep passion for football and a commitment to education, I returned to the Rio Grande Valley to dedicate myself to teaching and coaching. For the past 14 years, I have taught at many different school districts; with my last stop being at Corpus Christi ISD, where I was the Co-Offensive Coordinator. I’m excited about taking the role of Offensive Coordinator for Sharyland High School because I have a deep passion for shaping young athletes and fostering a love for the game of football. My career has been a blend of guiding students in the classroom and inspiring players on the field, all while staying deeply connected to my roots in South Texas.

I. Classroom rules
• Be in your seats once the bell rings
• Be respectful to your fellow classmates and teachers
• Make sure assignments are turned in on time
• Be prepared with all classroom materials
• NO CELL PHONE use in class/keep out of sight
II. Consequences for disruptive behavior: Students, who do not comply with the classroom rules, will have their name logged, then noted if continued behavior persists, in the discipline log. The following is the procedure of discipline for such individuals:
1. Verbal Warning (name is logged in and parent contact is made)
2. Teacher conference with the student
3. Teacher schedules a conference with student and parent
4. Student is referred to an assistant principal
** Disruptive behavior clause: this discipline procedure only applies to small classroom infractions. Any higher level infractions (such as fighting, skipping, vulgar language, lewdness, etc.) will bypass the discipline procedure and results in a referral**

(usually the next class period, unless noted by the teacher) Homework that is not turned in on the due date, can still be turned in but 10pts will be deducted from the grade of the assignment each day that it is late. **make sure to have your name, date, period, and title as your heading * *
