In his 14th year of athletic training, Jonathan Stinson sat down with The Red Ledger’s Katie Curry who got to know him in the following Q&A:

The Red Ledger: What schools have you been at?

Stinson: “I started at Shoemaker High School in Killeen, I went to Steele High School in Cibolo, I went and taught for a year at Corbett Junior High, and then I was at Judson High School for two years, and now I’m here.”

The Red Ledger: What do you do outside of school?

Stinson: “Sleep, take my son to his various activities, and that’s about it.”

The Red Ledger: What was your high school experience like?

Stinson: “I did not like high school. I was bullied in high school and middle school until I was a senior(ish) and just did not enjoy my high school experience.”

The Red Ledger: How was college?

Stinson: “College was awesome, I would do college again. I went to Baylor. It was a really good time.”

The Red Ledger: If you weren’t a trainer/teacher what would you do?

Stinson: “I always wanted to do it, I knew my first day of my freshman year of high school I wanted to do it. If I had to do something else I would probably do computer science or nursing or something.”

The Red Ledger: What is your favorite food to eat?

Stinson: “Pizza.”

The Red Ledger: What’s one thing that most people don’t know about you?

Stinson: “Oh goodness, I’m pretty much an open book. If you want to know something, you can pretty much just ask.”
