Amarillo High School volleyball coach Kori Clements has resigned.
On Wednesday, Clements announced her resignation from AISD, with a statement, saying she decided to resign due to her desires to “not compromise [her] integrity.” In the statement, Clements mentioned a “parent’s political pressure or position” in making her decision. Clements also mentioned playing time in the volleyball team, calling the playing time “earned.”
AISD has declined various media outlets’ requests to comment.
The announcement of the resignation comes as the Amarillo Independent School District is gearing up for its May 4th Board of Trustees elections. Three seats will be up for grabs in four year terms, with another seat’s final two years of a four year term also available in a special election. Filing for that election is happening now.
