ok

I have no idea but the student is usually in grade trouble and is ruled ineligible to play every so often

what if a kid made a lot of d's in middle school. Do you think they would be accepted?

ok, so what determines acception?? How does Manual decide to accept a kid?

How does one get into Manual who may have went to T.J.? Do they use a test to accept kids or look at middle school grades?

yeah but boy did they try.

Exactly Old Corps. Their use to be quite a few Manual coaches at Highview games.

well some of them mention a tad bit of sports when they are talking about their Magnet

no they don't. Students only go to buechel for extreme issues such as repeated fighting or drugs, hitting a teacher. You can't just send any kid to buechel. Why would we want a kid back from Manual who doesn't act right?

if your a coach and your going to football games on Saturday to talk about your schools magnet program, that is recruiting. RECRUITING HAPPENS, QUIT DENYING IT PEOPLE.

exactly, back to their home schools because you don't have to deal with them. We do. They should make a rule in Jefferson County that if schools accept a kid out of resides that they have to keep them for four years and can't kick them out to their home school.

Doesn't matter. Thats not going to change anything. Give it a few years. They will go after us because of open enrollment which creates recruiting.

Manual has discipline because they don't have to take undisciplined kids. If a kid applies for Manual that doesn't know how to act they won't accept them. They can also kick a kid out at anytime when a kids discipline starts to go bad. Other public schools can't do that to a kid that lives in their resides area. No matter how bad they were in middle school they have to accept them and no matter how bad they are in high school, they can't kick them out except for very extreme situations.

The rest of the state is going after Jefferson County next.

So you are saying that teachers at other public schools aren't nearly as good as teachers at Manual? Don't you get that schools like Moore will never raise their test scores up to compete with the Manuals and Males because they don't get the same kids because Manual and Male get to pick the best students in the County while Moore, Western, Southern just have to take what they get. And don't you also get that the board decides which schools get what programs? Schools have to ask the board to get an advanced program. You can't just put one up. They have to give you permission.

So those kids at Manual wouldn't be mational merit students if they went to a real public school? These kids would still be great kids without Manual.

Yeah and JCPS allows them to have that unfair advantage. Manual and Male are public privates.

Yes, schools have different levels. Regular classes, honors, and some have advanced. I guess some people are just too good for the Fern Creeks and Moore's. You obviously can't be more intelligent then a manual kid if you went to one of those schools. Since manual is a whole other level.

and, Sexton sending his kids to Manual or male is like sending them to St. X basically. These schools have basically the same advantage that the privates do.

But Male and Manuals Academic success is because they get to pick and choose students. They don't have to take kids like the rest of Jefferson County. You can't compare yestedays cats scores against other louisville schools. a school like Fern Creek will never have scores like male or manual, never. Because they don't get to pick anyone and kick anyone out.

No Trinity wouldn't have. Its a catholc school. It does not have a resides area therefore it cannot be your home school. It may have been your school of choice.

I doubt that. Not everyone can afford those schools.

Recruiting will be a problem as long as there is open enrollment in areas. Get over it. If kids had to go where they lived then coaches wouldn't waste their time. They would take what they get and you would see good parity in lots of sports.

The KHSAA isn't investigating Private schools. I don't think they investigate anybody. Thats the whole problem behind all of this. If they were doing their jobs and weren't scared to lay down the iron fist on some rule breakers then people wouldn't be coming to them with these proposals.

Yes but to be coached is not a state requirement. To be taught is.
