Can't wait till reallignment to see how it all pans out.

Of the 6 finalists, my favorite name presented was Sam Houston High.

I like the Goose Creek portion of the name, but Memorial...ehhh

Too many of those already.  Why not just call it Goose Creek high school?

They can redeem themselves with a cool, unique mascot.  I'm leaning towards Wildcatters.

[BigWolf10]

Was there a Goose Creek in Baytown? Did they loose it or something? Memorial  stands for in the memory of. I never heard of it.

[BMTSoulja1]

It is kind of Wierd that the school district conflicts with the school name...Baytown Lee and Baytown Sterling.  ??? ???

[BMTSoulja1]

Starting off 4a, huh?  Interesting!

[BigWolf10]

Add them to 22 4a aliminate the open week

[gary-us-bonds]

No, they didn't lose the creek.  Just like Port Arthur didn't lose the port and Spring Branch didn't lose their spring. 

Goose Creek is the name of the school district, not the name of the town any more.  It's the name of a section of the town.  It's also the name of the creek going through that section.  There used to be 3 towns(Pelly, Goose Creek and Baytown).  They consolidated into one and chose Baytown as the name a long time ago.  Goose Creek was chosen as the name of the school district for some reason.

I'm good with the Goose Creek part, because it is unique to Baytown.  I hate the Memorial part, because it is copying everyone else.

Lee and GC Memorial should both be 4A and in the same district.

[BMTSoulja1]

Sounds good.  Kindof like Ozen and Central being 4a and Brook being 5a here.

I agree, I don't like Memorial in the name, but Goose Creek is kind of cool. How about the the Goose Creek Crimson Tide. They could have uni's like Alabama. Oh well, I guess Dayton is gone in the next reallignment. I don't know who we would get in 22-4A.

LOL  nice name, might as well went with Goose Creek Memorial Geese....lol  ;D

[gary-us-bonds]

We already have a Geese mascot in Baytown lol

We don't need two of them.

Thanks for the explanation

why not  ?  lol  ;D

Word is, Lee and Sterling will remain 5A. The new school will only be 4A for a short time.

[gary-us-bonds]

mascot is the patriots

colors red, silver and black

[BHFAN]

Yuck ???

Baytown seems to have cheesed this out!!! Just my Opinion ;D

[PURPLE 4EVER]

If one or two of the Baytown schools are 4A, it should make for an interesting realignment this spring....

[BHFAN]

From the Baytown Sun

"The school will open with a full compliment of varsity and sub-varsity sports teams despite including only grades 9-11. The Patriots will compete in the 4A category for University Interscholastic League events for at least the first two years, but possibly longer depending upon growth patterns in the north part of Baytown. The district is projecting 1,300 students to attend the school in 2008, and about 1,700 by the 2009-10 academic year. "

9th through 11th and they will have a Varsity? I guess that is just the first year.

[KFDM COOP]

Yes.

[bronco1]

Looking at the enrollment numbers, according the last redistricting sheet. Sterling and Lee could lose enough students to make a 4A school and both remain 5A.

Lee - 2547.5

Sterling - 2781
