the fact that they are ballsy enough to penalize students for wanted a better education is a joke.


just my .02. If as a parent you want a better education for your kids, then plan ahead, and move them to the desired school, feeder school well ahead of time. So there are no issues. Do it the right way. Don't wait till your kid becomes a stud athlete, and problems develop between the parents/student, and either the school or coach. The problem in most cases is that most instances is a kid is a stud athlete in Jr high. Allow coaches to come in and start picking who they want, and then the recruiting starts. Parents get caught up, send their kid somewhere. It doesn't work out, then what? You have to move totally out of an attendance zone to avoid sitting, and who is usually there waiting.....a private school, or a diploma factory "academy".

It's way more convoluted than that, with variables such as where you live, what middle school you go to, etc.

If I plan to send my child to a private high school, not matter when I make the choice, where I live or what middle school he goes to should not matter.

And technically every single student at every single private school was recruited there in some form or fashion, athlete or non-athlete.

I've seen kids in some shitty school situations have their lives turned around by getting "recruited" to a private school.

The truth is that talent recruits and attracts talent... Just like college.
