Pretty bad when I put the wrong 1st name of a distant relative pm my Father's side. Hope he turns the fortunes of Lakeland around

So, I just found out St. Joe was supposed to open at Lakeland They now open at Heritage Christian Wonder if Kevin O'Shea being named the head coach of the Lakers had an impact on that?

They are like great family - football family

They have to get stronger, stop having so many injuries, and not play so many kids both ways. For the size of the school and team and with the competition that alone is a killer

Replaced Concord and Mishawaka with Lakeland and Glenn The balance is the same

I see where Jimtown's 2020 schedule is up on John Harrell's page They end the season playing the 4 South Bend Public schools Interesting

I think the coach EC has had recently has changed a lot. Having been on the sidelines and seeing how he handles things I was impressed. It sho uld be interesting how he handles more kids and more depth.

If the coach can install some self discipline and work ethic they have the athletes

Last night SBCSC named Darius Mitchell new coach at Clay

Russell Radtke Attendance Officer/Head Football Coach Phone: 574-654-7271 or 219-778-2215 rradtke@npusc.k12.in.us

Maybe red metallic with gold flecks in them

It should be interesting although last couple times I was on their sidelines noticed a slightly different demeanor.

Yes but they still are planning on coming to SB. So they can open up in a building anywhere. It should be interesting to see where since they appear to target a certain social-economic group

Has he been on the football staff? Jimmie fans what do you think of this hire?

Clay may be hard to fill since who knows what the SB schools are going to do as far as buildings etc. Jimtown is surprising since they could pick up a couple of kids who do not want to go to the new, bigger, Elkhart and could play at J'town. Interesting not much seems to be happening

Any thoughts on where Jimtown is heading with their search? See where Cathedral comes to Penn on Sept. 4

If memory is correct tax dollars cannot be spent on athletics so the # of high schools matters little money wise. It is how good the AD and booster clubs are at fund raising

The South Bend schools integrated in 1981 under the terms of the consent decree, a legal agreement that was reached in federal court and remains in effect today. The agreement requires that each school enroll a percentage of black students that is within 15 percentage points of the total percentage of black students in the school corporation. The latest data, released in November 2017, show that Washington High School and five primary schools are out of compliance. “It’s not the consent decree that’s the problem. It’s the interpretation,” said Oletha Jones, one of the CAFE organizers and education chair for the South Bend branch of the NAACP. Neither she nor Albert advocates seeking to end the consent decree.

I believe one school cannot have more then 50% minority if I am correct. Can anyone verify that?

Very interesting plan but I think there are more buildings that could or should be closed/consolidated Plus last night a new charter school will open in Washington for what the new called disadvantged students

You really think so? They have had 9 years knowing the circuit breaker was coming and did very little if anything. They need to close more then 1 high school buildings - too many under utilized

The school board needs to take the bull by the horn or if not it will get worse

I do not think any decisions will be made until the vote in May on the property tax thing. I did not see where the current guy left. They cannot continue to keep 4 large buildings going as high schools if enrollment keeps going down

You could combine one into 3 very easily and they should
