Open enrollment is one factor that is hurting BISD football. There are a large number of kids that physically live in Beaumont that are attending other districts that do have open enrollment. There is an even larger number of students that are doing so for Academic reasons. Just pay the fee and they can attend.

Whoever wins, what is really going to change in Southeast Texas. Does it really matter?

For a long time Freshman were on an entirely different campus and did not play varsity sports. Little Brook for Life.

Position by position I'm not sure that the Beaumont schools match up very well with the teams in their district. North Shore lines up defensive backfield D1 straight across (in general). Usually with one or two D1 lineman a major college defensive end and a superstar linebacker. It's just Satan's District, all it is.

I will not pretend to understand how all this works, but can't the GOP use the same mail-in-voting apparatus? What do those numbers look like?

If you were to combine you would have many more athletes leave the district for the surrounding schools. Around half of those currently participating would not be on the team and inevitably some of those that stayed would eventually leave because it is easier to make the team elsewhere.

Was it a benching or a safety issue?

Did WB take Jenkins out of the game?

Off hand, would you remember if any of them played sports?

Oh wow, so all you have to do is be able to get there?

Truth. But I was referring to open enrollment in surrounding districts. For 1K you can go to HJ, HF, EC and maybe a few others. Now I don't think you can play varsity your 1st year but the next year I believe you can.

The dedicated middle school deal is a good idea. But with some of those schools going Charter it muddies the waters a little bit. If they don't want to attend they can go elsewhere which may or may not put them into the zone for the other school then come 9th grade I have no idea what happens.

Open enrollment in surrounding districts is hurting Beaumont football. I would be curious to know how many kids from Beaumont are playing at surrounding schools. If it is even 30 that is a big number to take from WB and United.

The West End folks don't send their kids to BISD schools anyway.

What if they were to add a school? They could all be 4A or 5A. Then they could stay local, and stop having to go to Houston for everything. Might even save some money on travel.

What would that schools academic rating be?

Can they combine those schools and have a school that big that is that under performing academically?

If all 3 schools existed and they evened out attendance they could all have been 4/5A and been very competitive. 6A is just ridiculous.

It is interesting that we here in Southeast Texas are not reflective of the General electorate or the majority of the country. I wonder if they are having these same conversations everywhere.

Thanks for the clear up. There is a lot of information floating around. Thanks

Actual question. What if the mother has a miscarriage? What is the rule on having a D&C? Are they still allowed? Thanks for the help.

There are no consequences. They get sent to the office and back in class 20 minutes later.....rinse repeat.

If only we had Little Dribblers in Beaumont.

911 Pats win. Katrina, Saints almost win. Harvey, Astros win. Jordans Dad, Jordan Wins, on Fathers day no less, Boston Marathon, Red Sox Win the series. Payton Manning changes teams, SB. Farve changes teams, almost SB.......

Why no 5A games?
