October 27, 200520 yr I would bet you are wrong about this. I don't have any numbers and don't even know where to get them but I am going by Henderson's stats. I can't name one single foreign exchange student on any team. As a matter of fact when I was in school we only had one that I can remember in the entire school and she didn't play sports. She was however very hot. Straight students, possibly, athletes that contribute probably not.
October 27, 200520 yr I don't understand this whole way of thinking about community. I think of the SCHOOL as a community, regradless of where the students or faculty live. I agree with LBC here in that most outside of Louisvile would not think of a school as the community but the actual town or area within the town as the community. I think of Henderson as the community and the school and kids in that school as part of that community. I can see where you are coming from though being a supporter and part of a private school. Trinity really doesn't have a set area that they draw from so really it is the school and members itself that would be the community.

October 27, 200520 yr Author News to me. I never knew a SINGLE Indiana resident in my four years there, although I did know one legal and one illegal out of county student each in my own grade Thanks for the info. It is very possible that the person starting this rumor is intentionally trying to mislead everyone because he has an axe to grind with Manual. Does anyone else know the official policy of the Jefferson County Public Schools?
October 28, 200520 yr Thanks for the info. It is very possible that the person starting this rumor is intentionally trying to mislead everyone because he has an axe to grind with Manual. Does anyone else know the official policy of the Jefferson County Public Schools? Ru I teach in JC and they do not let outside kids in anymore. It stopped 2-3 yrs ago.
October 28, 200520 yr Author Does that mean there could still be a few seniors left or did they cut them off mid-stream? The timing is kind of funny too, if the pot is going to call the kettle black I guess the pot has to clean up its act.

I am sure there are still some finishing and there are probably many here illegally.
October 28, 200520 yr The cases of Indiana residents going to private schools in the Louisville area are well documented but I am interested in knowing how many Indiana residents go to Jefferson County Public Schools? For example, I understand Manual has a lot of Indiana residents? Anyone?That is so bogus!!!! There have been a few in the past but there are hardly a lot!!! :laugh: The two I know of one was a girl/YPAS dancer, the other was a kid whose dad lived in Louisville but his mom lived in Jeffersonville and he used his dads address, even though he stayed with his mom, he didn't play sports. Unless hacky sack is a sport.
October 28, 200520 yr I am sure there are still some finishing and there are probably many here illegally.I know kids that live in Mt. Washington but go to Fern Creek because they use there Grandmothers address. It happens alot and most the time has little to nothing to do with sports.
October 28, 200520 yr Author ram, I should have stated myself better. I was told (and now I think misled) that this was true and the source is someone in the public school system trying to stir the pot.

October 29, 200520 yr There may be a kid here or there attending JCPS that lives in Indiana. From my experience in high school, it certainly wasn't widespread (I didn't know anyone in my 340-member graduating class that was from outside of Jeff County) and I strongly doubt that sports is a motivating factor. Private school supporters act like if there is one student in JCPS from across the river, that legitimizes the numerous impact players from Indiana they have on their teams. Trinity's rushing and scoring leader apparently calls Jeffersonville, IN home.

The Class of 1997 had a kid ALL THE WAY from Glasgow, KY.... :eek:
October 29, 200520 yr The Class of 1997 had a kid ALL THE WAY from Glasgow, KY.... :eek: Pretty sad when you have to go back almost TEN YEARS to cite an example in support of your 'argument' (and a bad example at that since the student in question was a bona fide resident of Jefferson County, KENTUCKY when he went to Male). The Indiana resident I was referring to suited up for the Rocks just last night . :sssh:
October 29, 200520 yr Do we really want to discuss where said ATHLETE resided? Really? He became a friend of mine to do his girlfriend, and my wife being friends in high school. Believe me, I don't care where you live/lived as long as everything is legit and you follow all of the written rules.
