Was Georgetown a seperate school system or were they part of the county school system?

My top 3

1. Elkhorn Creek High School (Bass or Crawdads)

2. Elijah Craig High School (Keg)...will never fly

3. Great Crossing High School (Apes) former elementary school/grade school that is now central office located across the street.

Seperate issue, but how will this effect sports? The Bob Beatty to Bentonville discussion has me thinking that McKee could not have been a fan of this.

Public School No. 2

Colors: hmmm, I'm thinking

Nickname: The Birds? ( or something like that)

 

Sorry...I just can't be serious on Friday afternoon.

Lead balloon got there?

I was told that the new school was going to be only for academically advanced students in the county. I'm not thinking that's how they'll do it, though.

 

Also, someone mentioned the new name being Wendell Ford High. If I'm not mistaken he was born and lived in western Kentucky, maybe Owensboro. He wouldn't have anymore ties to Scott County than he would any other county in the state, other than Daviess County.

Until 1975 it was a separate school system. In 1975 the high schools and the different school districts consolidated.

 

Most all agreed that a new high school is needed in the near future. Arguments from community and coach's center around the phasing in process and lack of adequate athletic facilities in phase 1. Looks like it's going to be a separate but unequal problem. The current high school doesn't even have (better word would be own) a field that can host varsity games!

I liked the name, but am with you. If he's not from the area then that name is a no-go.

I'm very disappointed there hasn't been a comment on the Richard Johnson suggestion....come on people!

 

Former US Vice President Richard M Johnson and his family had deep roots in Scott County and is a very valid suggestion for the new high school name!

He actually started an Indian School on or close to the property that the new HS will be build on!

Correct Garth was one of the many Grade Schools in SC. When all the Grade Schools consolidated Oxford, Sadieville, Great Crossing, Ed Davis, Garth, etc, two high schools were built, some kids went to SCHS and some kids went to GHS. Most of Garth's kids were districted to Georgetown High School.

 

The former Garth High School is the current Garth Elementary School.

The former Georgetown High School is the Current Georgetown Middle School.

 

Was there a black high school in Georgetown during the segregation era?
