There’s so much growth in that area what was it 12-15 brand new neighborhoods getting built over there. I don’t see an issue with Crosby getting a jump now on wanting to build a new elementary and middle school to accommodate those kids. In reality kudos to them for thinking ahead…3 points -
I'm certainly agreeing with him on that! As a matter of fact you see it all across the state; there are numerous programs that were once very proud and successful that are now struggling to win because of this....just to name a few in East Texas that are suffering dearly: Alto, Tenaha, Jacksonville, Henderson, Tatum...these are a few of the schools (just in east Texas). Make no mistake its happening on a very large scale across the entire state2 points

Red Boyou reacted to Concerned Citizen for a topic
Not sure of the hiring and firing for the particular sports, I am sure she has her reasons and we may never understand nor agree. She get paid the big bucks to make those tough decisions. Let's be real, it's a demographic shift that is affecting the athletic program (yeah I said it). Somewhere near 2009 CISD was approx 60%+ Caucasian and now it's 37%, NUMBERS DON'T LIE. A quick Google search will confirm my number quote. Unfortunately, the population (now majority) that's moving to Crosby don't particularly play Football nor basketball. I included basketball into the conversation because last year the varsity lost both district games to Sterling. It will take anyone a while to find when the last time Crosby Basketball lost to Sterling. Point is, it's not just Football that is having a rough time. The problem is not just the Supt, if she is even part of the problem, It's bigger than her, when your best basketball player is a Soph and the HC's son, there is a problem. He is also one of the top WR. Not many HS not collegiate sports can thrive when the leading players are underclassmen. 2021 was an anomaly and should not be confused with the standards of the football team from year to year. That 2021 class had a lot of move-in kids, whole family moved here and not just an athletic transfer. Therefore, their results sort of skewed the football program expectations. The same for basketball, PJ Haggerty was a transfer and since his college departure the Bball program has been anemic, to say the least. This is not about transfers, but just to point the obvious in regard to move-in/transfer kids. The same for BH girls Bball, when C Collier transferred from Crosby to BH their girls program thrived. Haven't heard much about the girl program since (IJS). #maketransfersgreatagain (LOL) I try to not make general statements and state actual facts.1 point -

$250k for homeless
bullets13 reacted to 5GallonBucket for a topic
It’s a smart idea …..I agree with that same sentiments of what smashmouth said But Many citizens are fed up with paying for people s lack of discipline and that includes politicians 1st and foremost on both sides of the isle and what the allocate taxes for. the government has grown based on undisciplined politicians and undisciplined citizens who lack appropriate standards to function properly as a unit….and that’s all humanity. It has pressured the traditional house close to extinction. the homeless issue is just one of many Taking away personal responsibility is what big govt is good at and it removes a foundational cornerstone that human beings need.1 point -
So Dr. Patterson is an amazing person no question about it. Having worked with her as a teacher of her child she was always really positively involved. From what my contacts (former colleagues) in the building can tell me that nearly all of her mistakes that are being viewed are about athletics. Every school in the entire district has been measurably better under her leadership. She has taken several schools that had rating issues such as the middle school and Barrett Primary and pushed them into well rated academic schools. The education in Crosby has literally never been better than it is today. Within a school district with 50% free and reduced lunches you have a thriving academic environment. Football coach hire was a failure under her leadership and those ultimately fall to the Supers feet in these sort of districts. The truth is firing the coach and hiring a new one is much more palatable then firing a Super, especially one with a lot of community support and who has measurable achievements. Not privy on the baseball coach situation but I'll take your word on it. Four day work week is in year one that'd be like measuring success for your child at the two week mark and saying your kids an A student. 85 Million Bond is about growth, and getting buildings up and running before every building is beyond capacity. It won't be the last bond because the area is exploding with growth. I wouldn't be surprised if the two high school talk starts again. Too many people forget what a Superintendents job is. It has nothing to do with the football team or baseball team and if that's all your going to look at with a district then you need to get your priorities straightened out. As someone who has three nieces and nephews in the district I could care less if the entire athletics program imploded if it meant my family gets a better education. I'm about as hard core a Crosby football fan as there is but priorities are waaaaay off on this post.1 point

Why? We have a 9 member majority and 8 of them voted McCarthy out. That means the next speaker would be a slave to those 8 members and have to do exactly what they wanted.1 point -

I’ll go for at least “as stupid”. It’s hard to do the right thing when all you’re really worried about (as a politician) is garnering favor for votes, payoffs, positions or any other self-serving thing you can come up with.1 point -

Again, you would not be an honest juror if you said political affiliation would not affect your consideration of the evidence. I trust that enough people take the court process seriously that a randomly selected jury pool would contain at least 12 people who could look at evidence, not personality or politics. Were I called for a Trump trial jury pool I would have to disqualify myself. And I would.1 point

PA Announcer pet peeve
thetragichippy reacted to AggiesAreWe for a topic
Public Address should never ever do play by. PA job is to summarize the play after the play. Give down and distance, acknowledge the players in the play (offense, defense) and announce any penalties that were called. PA is never ever to voice their opinion of a play, call. Just announce the facts of the play. PA is not a radio/video broadcast. Vastly different.1 point -
