  1. Does Nederland need new schools? Probably. Will they get them? Who knows , maybe next bond since the last one was pretty close to building two new ones. After all the upgrades that they just did to the existing ones, (which turned out pretty well I might add) it will probably be a few years. Still doesn't change the fact that NISD is one of the highest ranked in the area academically and has one of the lowest dropout rates. The fact that 99% of the tax base is small business and actual landowners as opposed to large refineries means the burden is on them as others have said. When they decide its time the bond will pass. Some of the local ISDs with large tax bases have proven time and again that money doesn't guarantee a good education. It is only one tool in the box.
  2. Ok, I'm going to say this once and it applies to all, discussion of the game and calls are fine as long as it stays within the rules. Start bashing another city, team, players, other users on this board, or the umpires personally and you are going to get a vacation. End of story.
  3. I will speak to the "D" word as far as Nederland goes. Having played (unfortunately ) for the previous two coaches and then going back and seeing Nederland practices after Neumann got there I will say it was a night and day change. The way the kids reacted to the commands and payed attention during practice was amazing to me. He commanded respect and got it ,and it showed on Friday nights. I think that is what you are trying to say about the new Central coach correct?
  4. Yeah, I saw that after reading through the whole article. Nederland's alternative campus is discipline based but also offers classes for credits to students who are trying to catch up on credits.
  5. AEP doesn't always work that way. Most kids may get a week or 2 in there depending on the infraction. Or , one Saturday. ( Not speaking from experience) Although this seems to be a little different than most Alternative campuses.

  7. Take off those red glasses. Its going to be GS/ Cleveland final again. Whoever wins this series gets a GS beatdown next round.
  8. Yes, but this is a different situation. Not only would it involve four or five districts ( if you include HF ISD) but this is more of a case of low test scores and mismanagement, not integration. In the last two cases of school districts being closed Lamarque and North Forest ISD the neighboring districts agreed to absorb the closing districts they weren't forced.
  9. True. Most of those elected won't sit. But the TEA was watching that election and the fact that the same people involved in the mess that brought the TEA in the first place got re-elected is not good.
  10. Exactly, so as to not cause a panic. Sounds like they handled it quietly and removed him from the campus before anything happened.
  11. BISD needs to be real careful or there might not be a BISD anymore..
  12. I know, I started to disagree with you until I re-read your post.
  13. GCISD stops at Cedar Bayou north of I-10, which is also the Harris county/Chambers county line. It does run to 99 south of IH-10.
  14. updated to reflect play-in games and tie breakers as of 4/27.
  15. 22-5a Standings updated as of yesterday's game to reflect the final run for the playoffs.
  16. DC and probably the third or fourth round, I agree. Its tough making it back to the SC with the players they lost, I know they reload but it may take a year or two to get back to Jerryworld.
  17. updated as of Friday's games.
  18. If it is true, it would make sense. Kyle is a Nederland guy.
  19. Standings have been updated, sorry for the delay but work is getting in the way.
  20. Then volunteer to help. I have been extremely busy at work the last week and half and haven't had time to update the standings. Notice I said volunteer, which is what all of the mods/admins are.
  21. That is the site I am using for standings.
