If the kid applied to Trinity and was in financial need, yes they would.

Every public school district in the state is free to admit students from out of district and charge them tuition. Most choose not to. After all, how many people would pay tuition to attend a public school.

I don't know any that would if the student was an athlete because they wouldn't be allowed to play anyway.Thats why they have to move into the district.

There is no KHSAA restriction on where you play until after you have played in a varsity contest. The KHSAA would not have any rule against it.

I know of this being done in some county schools now,but it is to inconveinent for most families to do unless you live in a large city with many schools.It is a lot easier to go to a private in your backyard than transport to another county.

I have a relative that personally knows the mother of a star player at one of the 'big 2' in louisville. the kid is from southern indiana and there's no way his mother (a single mom) can afford tuition. now, would the school go across the river to get this kid and offer assistance if he was not an athlete?

 

you answer that. is that cheating? I don't know.

The very simple answer is that the financial aid procedures are the same for athletes and non athletes. Period. The financial aid service has no idea who the students are or if they play a sport. I know this is hard for some to believe, but that is the way it is. It always seems that everyone has a relative that knows the friend of a parent whose kid knows someone who once met someone who has it on good authority that there is a rumor that something could be going on.

Fun stuff, hicknick! :lol: I'm a single mom...I've paid the tuition at a private school....I wonder how I did it? :lol: For the record, my son used to play football....

you did it because you're special - guess I should have left that point out. sorry.

Maybe she's special too.

that's the coaches' jobs. if you don't think your school's coaches or others affiliated with your school don't scout a) across the river or b) non-catholic school leagues, then you have your head in the sand.

 

is it right or wrong? i really don't care.

Yes I believe that they do scout. And by the way, in this part of the state I don't believe that there are any public school leagues. It is also my understanding that public school coaches scout both youth leagues and Catholic leagues. I would like to put a stop to it. I am in favor of tougher rules that would eliminate chasing kids because they are athletes, even if it is done under some other pretense. If someone wants to put forward some proposals for that I'll welcome them. The question was about financial aid. Financial aid is handled according to very strict rules and sports aren't part of the equation.
