At their June 7, 2006 meeting, the FUSD
Board of Education adopted
Resolution #06-38
recognizing John Tyree for his dedication to the students of the Fontana Unified
School District and its community.
John Tyree has coached
students in the Fontana Unified School District for 13 years as the Head
Football Coach of the Fontana High School Steelers and the A.B. Miller Rebel
Football Team. In 1976, he took the Fohi Steelers to the CIF Finals.
During his years at Fontana
High School, Coach Tyree was successful in sending several young men to college
from his teams. In his final season at Fohi, seven players received
full-ride scholarships to universities.
Coach Tyree continues to care
about the student athletes he has been charged with leading. His players
genuinely love and care for him. Coach Tyree helped shape the face of
Fontana football and the Inland Empire.
Coach Tyree will be retiring at
the end of this school year. We wish him the best of luck as he begins
this new chapter in his life.
