Dave Flynn

David Flynn (born ) is an American college football coach. He was the head football coach for Dedham High School from 2011 to 2020. He previously coached for WPI and Harvard. He was the head football coach for Fitchburg State College—now known as Fitchburg State University—from 1998 to 2001 and Braintree High School from 2006 to 2010. He played college football for Union (NY) as a fullback.

In 2011, Flyyn was hired as the head coach at Dedham High School. His contract was not renewed in January 2021 because he expressed "significant philosophical differences" with the school district after he sent an e-mail to the school committee voicing opposition to critical race theory being included in his daughter's seventh grade curriculum. Following his firing, lawyers for the conservative activist group Judicial Watch filed a lawsuit on Flynn's behalf. The lawsuit was dismissed in May 2021, but Judicial Watch appealed. The two sides reached a settlement in which Flynn received $9,944 and a letter of apology from the superintendent.
