Hello! My name is Madison Acosta, and I’m excited to join the PJHS community as the new volleyball coach. I was born and raised in Paradise and am a proud 2019 graduate of Paradise High School. After high school, I continued my athletic journey playing soccer at Butte College for two years.
In addition to coaching volleyball, I will be student teaching at PJHS as I work toward my goal of becoming a Physical Education teacher. Sports and physical activity have always been a big part of my life, and I’m passionate about inspiring students to stay active, work hard, and have fun.
When I’m not on the court or in the classroom, you can usually find me at the river, playing soccer, or listening to music. I’m looking forward to a great season and to getting to know all of the amazing students, families, and staff here at PJHS!

I have been teaching, coaching, and directing athletics programs in Paradise, Magalia, and Chico for the past 26 years. I grew up in the bay area and have always loved competing in athletics. As a young child through high school, I competed on cross country, track and field, and basketball teams, but loved playing all sports. This love of sport and a desire to help people guided me toward the path of being a physical educator. I graduated from Chico State in 1996 with a bachelor's degree in Physical Education and have been at it ever since. I absolutely love my job, love working with my students, love coaching my athletes, and have always strived to help kids become the best versions of themselves. I am a firm believer that athletics is a fantastic way for kids to grow so much more than physically. When we compete with a Paradise Junior High School jersey on, I teach our athletes that we represent ourselves, our school, our town, and our whole community. This is something that we must do with pride, class, and amazing sportsmanship. Win or lose, it is how we carry ourselves that is most important.
