Donna High School’s head football coach has resigned following his arrest Sunday.
District Public Relations Officer Sandra Quintanilla confirmed Monday that the administration was notified of Mike Gonzales’ arrest in a statement.
Gonzales tendered his resignation which was promptly accepted, the statement said.
“On Sunday, September 15, 2024, Donna ISD administration was notified of the arrest of Donna High School Coach Mike Gonzales.
