quote:i need to change my screen name , now I have heard from 14 total people at schools either HC, AD or P and 12 against and 2 for.
I have talked to 7 Principals this week in my normal course of business and ALL are voting against it.
From what I understand(and this happened on the last "split ending vote" school boards and some politicians are pressuring principals to vote one way or another....... I know 3 public principals that wanted to vote to end split but school board people and others told them to vote in a different way.

in the end AI is coming for teaching anyways. Already showing its much better at teaching with the success of the alpha program.
Oh yeah you can drop off your kid to a computer and say good luck, see you in 8 hours? Lol you have not clue what you are talking about.

you have no fricking clue douchebag
its not 8 hours dumbass
you do roughly 2-3 hours a day of intense learning. each subject is broken down into blocks, you are tested periodically and quizzed daily so the AI learns how you learn and adjust teaching methods and you move at your own pace. based off the testing scores it adjust the allotted time for subjects.
but hey we should continue to move at the pace of the lowest common student right?
thats why the testing scores for the alpha program is better than the top 1% of private schools across the country and have been producing 30+ act scores at a 80%+ clip right?
just keep doing the same thing.. since that always works
within 5 years parents of means will be going this route, not traditional school and they will be leaps and bounds above their peers that remain the traditional route and the gap will grow even more.
to the subject of the thread...will it affect HS sports yep, especially baseball, basketball, soccer and volleyball. those sports already have a tournament style system setup. football will be tougher. Its either that or you will see schools like the Bennet school start popping up.
sorry but kids dont need to be in school 7-8 hours. most of the time is down time spent on BS. its a waste of time for high performing academic kids. its frustrating as hell for them too. it holds them back.
it also is a detriment to those that dont learn well through traditional means. They may be a kid that learns on verbal. Teachers cant cater to just one student and their learning method, AI can. not to mention on average educators have one of the lowest Avg IQ's of college grads.
but hey...some computer isnt taking your job...right?

So every family will need to have one parent not work so they can stay at home with their kid for 3 hours a day? Awesome!

This also misses out on one of the most important elements of school, socialization. We already saw what isolation does during Covid. I have no clue why people would even consider homeschooling. The social education your child misses out on by staying at home and not interacting is very important.

I just looked through your Alpha AI program bud. Doesn't look like any teachers are replaced, but nice try. Also, you can attend for the low, low price of $40,000 per year!
Gtfo. AI isn't replacing teachers any time soon. Newman would blush at that tuition.

umm yea they are replaced in the homeschool option. and i didnt say it was cheap, but eventually that price will come down
but good luck with that, keep thinking AI wont replace teachers.
now im not saying it will replace all. im just saying, AI schools will become common place within a decade and a very viable choice. within 5 years all major cities will have it as a choice and they will mainly be sports academies or music/art academies.
and in texas the homeschool credit takes care of the cost of tuition. more states will eventually follow through on that just like how so many have on school choice.

So question about all these issues… if the state legislature prohibits public schools from being in the LHSAA, but the LHSAA still exists as the private school association, and the NFHS mandates only one association per state, will all of the public schools not be part of an NFHS member association?

The NFHS doesn’t really mandate one association per state, they only recognize one “full member” of the NFHS per state but does recognize affiliate members aside from the full member (TAPPS is an affiliate member of the NFHS).
However, pretty much every state’s public school association is the full member with exception of Iowa (Iowa has separate associations for boys and girls - the boys association is the full member and the girls is the affiliated member). So it would bring up an interesting issue.
It’s a shame that this is happening now because the relationship between the private and public schools in Louisiana is the best it’s been since the before the original split.
I know the narrative is the one-time transfer would been private schools to the detriment of public schools but if you talk to private school administrators, they believe the opposite and the hard data backs them up. The vast majority of transfers are kids that get cut or are based on disputes about playing time which would negatively affect enrollment at large schools (both public and private). The elite athlete transferring from one school to another happens but it’s the exception, not the rule.

Today is the meeting. Class meetings start at 8:30 so it shouldn't take long to start hearing tidbits hopefully.

The rate of people at schools I am talking to that are opposed to the rule are pretty consistent among private, charter, open enrollment and traditional. The legislature does not have the support to force publics out.
The vote will not be close.
The main ones wanting the rule are the kingpin cherry pickers and the those that scoop up kids falling through the cracks.
between this and the NIL hs sports in LA is at a crossroads more challenging than integration.

Realistically, NIL isn't in the top five issues for the LHSAA. It's just not that prevalent in high school and even the contracts that are out there are not of high value.

So question, why is it happening in other states? (SC and OK)
This is what happens when they get a supermajority. They’re going to do what they want to do and serve other masters before they serve Louisiana. This is all about the conservatives facilitating school choice programs by removing one of the biggest obstacles to kids being able to transfer.
If there’s a new association formed the Chalmette/Holy Cross rivalry will be in jeopardy and I texted my legislator about that
And you love the small towns and whatnot but this is the cities and the money taking control if this doesn’t pass today.

I think the new association ship has sailed. Also, you say conservatives wanting school choice, but pretty much the one time transfer is universally disliked by both public and private schools.

my question is why would you not be for school choice and making schools compete?
the main gripe against this whole thing and school choice is essentially.....we dont like change.
and why would anyone think that NIL is some prevalent thing. not even in the top 10 of things people should be worried about. this is not college and the nil rule was passed mainly to allow schools like LSU compete with other states and was done after Quinn Ewers skipped his senior year because he was offered big NIL money from Ohio State and could not accept due to texas rules.

Like anything it will hurt some schools and help others…
