Has anyone heard any news on the opening?

Tough shoes to fill of Sally Zimmerman. She did a great job there!

Shelby County Lady Rockets as we know them, THE consistent stud program in the 8th region since the most recent KHSAA realignment, may soon be no more. Shelby will be splitting into two high schools in the near future, and most likely the balance of power will change in the 8th region as a result of it. The two biggest-enrollment schools now will be Anderson County and Simon Kenton; the next two are Oldham County and then South Oldham, but they are smaller.

 

With the Shelby split, how the student population distribution is resolved will be the key. Currently, the two middle schools - Shelby West and Shelby East - have not been competitively even the past few years, so it will be worth watching to see how it all plays out. Regardless, this hiring activity will be repeated in a few years, as the new school will also need to be staffed.

Not to mention the talent pool at Shelby County appears to be running on hard times. They're freshman and JV teams didn't fair as well this past season and the prospects coming up don't look nearly as promising as those of the past.

Not to undermind anyone, but the talent might not be great, The up coming group, will do good. we just do not know where they will be.

wrong coach named

Have they started interviews yet?

When is the new school set to open?

I understand that the new school should be finished in 3 years.

So it will remain just as is til then?

Is the upcoming split the reason Zimmerman is leaving?
