  No, it was because Carter toasted the Shah in the months leading up to the end of his regime, and the revolutionaries refused to let him get credit for getting the hostages back.

    Could, and likely will. Which is why I said the entire administration needs to be replaced. That way, whatever superintendent takes over after TEA returns control to local voters will have an administration that isn't saturated with cronies privy to this kind of corruption, and would thus have a harder time getting away with it in the short term.

Corruption as serious as what exists in BISD is too pervasive and too entrenched to be removed with a simple replacement of a superintendent and temporary dissolution of the a school board. BISD cannot have as many problems as it has without most, if not all, of its administration being either aware of or complicit in the criminal activity. The only way to fix this problem is to uproot and replace the administration in its virtual entirety.

  Dr. Simmons would be, by far, the best candidate to lead BISD out of this mess under TEA supervision.

Really, it depends on the district they're coming out of.

Even though you're going to end up with families that homeschool their children moving into different districts with better athletic teams. Also, they better make sure the same rules apply about athletic transfers, because there will be people who all of the sudden pull their kids out of school, move to a district with better athletic activities and "homeschool" their children there.

If I had to guess, the general idea is probably that if it's made and sold in Alaska, it's not considered interstate commerce and thus can't be regulated by the federal government. Hate to tell y'all this, but I don't think that would stand in court and even if it did, I doubt many manufacturers are going to move to Alaska.

I've argued against similar initiatives in the past. My top concern is recruiting, and not just for sports. UIL encompasses everything from the performing arts to academics. The private schools would be picking off any talented student they could get to while the public schools would be hamstrung by district boundaries. I hadn't thought of enrollment manipulation, but that's an excellent point as well. Other states allow private schools to compete in their public school leagues and experience similar problems. Here in Alabama, they double the enrollment numbers of private schools to place them in higher classifications to try and account for the disadvantage this naturally deals the public schools (for instance, a private school with 300 students would go into the classification for 600 students), but it only helps so much.

LC-M has tried that before as well. The result was the same. Needless to say, they stopped after two years.

The best thing about being a band member for four years was torturing the rest of Southeast Texas with that song thirty to forty times a game. ;D And the Indian Faithful were still asking us to play it more often. ;D
