Mailing address was Jersey Village But he graduated from Aldine EIsenhower Phone Number said Melrose Park If you asked him where he was from..... Houston. Go figure. When I lived in Baltimore and mentioned I was from "East Texas" the reaction almost always was something to the effect of "I've heard Houston is really nice."

But usually the demographics even out and then another school becomes the new white flight school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PG is one of the most diverse schools in Texarkana. It is still predominately white. I think it is around 70% white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lived in Palestine for a long time, so am familiar with the area. Question, do they fold you into district 8 which has Rogers and Lexington or do they carve a little. You are close to Anderson-Shiro and Buffalo. Notice last few alignment Uil has chosen an East-West alignment in 3A in your area. Idk last time we played in d2 our district was leon hearne marlin ( all 3 2a now) buffalo lexington and trinity (3ad1)... Im thinking maybe franklin lexington rogers buffalo new waverly and anderson shiro would be the district Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like they caught everybody napping or somthin.. Seems like they did that once.. cut off numbers used to keep same quanity schools in divisions. that's why such along time between snapshot and number release.

BuckNut Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Don’t they release numbers early now? That would help coaches in scheduling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Districts 12-15 in 6A division 1 are all 9 team districts.District 28 6A D1 is actually a 10 team district full of teams in San Antonio District 3 5A D1 is a 9 team as is district 13 5A D1 which is also full of teams in San Antonio. 16 5A D1 is a 10 team district in the Brownsville area Without writing a book, there are many more 9 team districts out there. Seems to be much more common now than say 20 years ago where a towns like Frisco weren't building 10 high schools (with 2 new additional high schools in the works) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CDogg33 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Lorena and Fairfield both turned in 505. So they will be the biggest 3A in the state or the smallest 4A in the state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see a "sold out" scrimmage atmosphere If they dropped the game that would be a good compromise. Convert the game into an annual scrimmage.

PG going open enrollment shook things up in Texarkana Can a school without multiple high schools in the ISD be an open enrollment school? I know Red Lick and Leary ISDs don't have high schools so I guess they can go to any school in Texarkana, but can a kid in Texarkana or LE district go to PG and participate in any UIL activities?

I'm thinking so..... Hallsville ISD is open enrollment and they have a percentage of white flight students that actually live in Longview and Marshall ISD's. They just have to pay a "tuition" to attend. Participating in UIL activities doesn't seem to be an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
