I don't see anyone relocating to send their kids to McKinley.

McKinley HS is a gifted and talented high school. There are hundreds of students at McKinley who live in the SG area. They don't have to move next door to McKinley to attend McKinley. They are provided transportation to school to attend McKinley by EBRSS.

On the contrary, if SG forms its own school district, the parents of those students will be forced to move out of SG into the EBR school system's geographical area just so their children can continue to attend the school of their choice.

This is the second totally incorrect statement you've made in this thread.

You continue to prove my point that rampant ignorance is a contributing factor for the SG efforts.

One school is only responsible for its own rating. Tara has no impact on what Woodlawn scores. The zachary public school is exceptional. Families relocated to send their kids to that school.


What Im saying is when Zachary grows there will be more high schools. The rating for the whole system will struggle to keep that "move here, we have A schools" selling point.

I seriously doubt "hundreds" of kids from SG area go to Mckinley. I have walked the halls of that school.

Yet, let's not look at that the thousands of kids that don't get to attend the magnet schools. Their education is irrelevant because a few kids that already get a great education may have to move. Sacrifice the whole to save a few. Excellent strategy.

Ok. So, I looked up the figures on EBR ratings.
They are D-rated.... were in 2008, are in 2013.
"OMG. Sooo much better than an F rating! Parents.... send your kids to EBR schools! You are ignorant (or racist) if you dont!"


F=1, D=2, C=3, B=4, A=5.
2.03 weighted average in 2008.
2.72 weighted average in 2013.
D-rated schools... still.

You may be able to bully others with your condescending statements, but they make you neither superior or correct.
In your blind bias, you lose sight of the fact that you are trying to defend the quality of EBR schools versus the excellent alternatives in the area of Zachary, Livingston, or Ascension.

You have lost your credibility.
