Life High School Waxahachie February Coach Spotlight

Coach Eric Bishop has been part of Life School for 16 years, faithfully serving our students both in the classroom and on the field. He teaches BIMM 1 and serves as an assistant coach for boys’ and girls’ soccer. A graduate of Boling High School, Coach Bishop continued his education at Sam Houston State University and Texas A&M Commerce. His leadership and vision led to the establishment of the Life Waxahachie soccer program in 2014. During its inaugural season, the program consisted of varsity teams only, and Coach Bishop coached both the boys' and girls' teams—laying the foundation for what has grown into a strong and competitive program today. Beyond wins and losses, Coach Bishop is known for developing meaningful relationships with students and exemplifying Life School’s mission of developing leaders for the future. His dedication, character, and commitment to our student athletes have left a lasting legacy. We are truly blessed to have Coach Bishop as part of our Life School athletic family and are grateful for his years of service and leadership.
