It's supposed to open up for the 2008-2009 school year which means it may field a team this year. What will this do to the districts already in place? What will the Baytown sizes be?

The projection is for Sterling to remain 5A, and Memorial and Lee to be 4A. This is still in play because there are "grandfathering" issues being addressed at the moment.

Grandfathering is when a student does not have to switch schools because it would cause a split among siblings in a family. In other words, you would not have a Junior attending one school and his Freshman little brother attending another.

"Grandfathering" is like when a guy in the NFL gets to keep his one bar facemask, because he was there before the rule was put in place that made it illegal to have one bar facemasks.

In other words, if the student already goes to Lee, then he will be grandfathered in next year to stay at Lee if he/she so desires, regardless of where he/she is zoned.

Another factor in the grandfathering is if a child's parents have alot of money tied up in an organization (Stars, Cheerleading etc..) and not wanting to have to switch schools and lose all of that investment.

But panama, won't this only affect juniors to be, not just anyone who wants to stay?

just curious.why does baytown NEED another highschool?

Explosive growth. The area north of I-10 up Garth and Main is flat out booming. Also the area just South of I-10 down 146, too.

From what I hear, Memorial and Sterling will be getting most of the area with Lee becoming smaller and smaller until it's disbanded all together. Would this happen and Sterling and Memorial just become the two AAAAA's

    • Are you really gonna talk about decorum from a President while supporting the guy who effectively has no such decorum? Just last night the former president (and would-be despot) was in Arizona talking with Tucker Carlson and fantasized about Liz Cheney in front of a firing squad… after calling her dumb, of course.     Trump didn’t just “defecate all over the office of the President”…. He is a piece of excrement.  
    • I personally hope PN-G gets 2nd gets to the 2nd round wins the flip against SOC and drag them them to Houston to play 
    • I like option number two, PNG and Nederland both win. Nederland i’ll be the district champion, number 1 seed or whatever you want to call it. Yes I know that if two or three teams tie with the same record, they will be called co-champions and everyone gets a trophy. One team however will go in as the first place team in district and will play the fourth place team in the bi-district round. If PNG and Nederland both win, Nederland will be #1.

    • Virginia has same day voter registration. A person can literally walk in to the voting location, register and then vote. So the premise that Virginia might be stopping people with a legitimate right to vote is nonsense. From what I gather in the news report, assuming that the ones I have read are correct, the people that were removed, filled out a drivers license registration and marked that they were not an American citizen. Could the person have made a mistake bychecking the box incorrectly? Although unlikely it is certainly possible. That same person who was removed can go into the same voting location where he would have voted and again, complete a voter registration and then vote.  That went into the Supreme Court’s decision.  If such a person votes by registering on election day, he fills out a provisional ballot. Provisional ballots are not originally counted and or not counted unless needed. For example….  Statewide there are 500 provisional ballots cast. A person wins the election by 4,000 votes. That would be no need to count the provisional ballots as it will not matter. Then let’s say there are 5,000 provisional ballots cast in the election. One candidate then wins the election by only 1,500 votes. In that case, the election could definitely swing on those provisional ballots. The state will then investigate each person to make sure they live at the correct address listed and that they are American citizens. If these things are correct, the vote will then be counted. Safe Harbor is not untillll…… I think December 17th this year so there will be six weeks to verify the provisional ballots if needed. The purging of the names of people who checked a state form saying that they were not an American citizen, will not stop that same person from voting.
