It’s painting with too broad a brush to think all the P/Ps are alike or are governed by even vaguely similar rules. Even then, I can’t speak to understanding the nuances of how P/Ps operate in cities outside of the Indy Archdiocese.....those differences matter, though. For the most part, all PPs punch well above their weight. Certainly some more than others. The Multiplier works for PPs because it treats them all equally, just like the SF treats all public's equally Edited November 14, 2020 by DT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how that would bigger advantage to public schools? Nearly 2/3’s of Cathedral’s enrollment is on some kind of financial aid and I’m guessing that’s on the low end in comparison to other P/P’s statewide. Plenty of single parent kids going to P/P’s. Open enrollment allows you to attend any public school you want. Before, you attended your local high school or paid to go to a private school. Open enrollment ended that ideology.

If I live in IPS and have an 8th grader that is really good, I can either a) send him to one of the many surrounding township schools that have good football programs or pony up and send him to Cathedral or Chatard. One’s free and one cost money. Who holds the advantage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that schools like Carmel, as well as Center Grove, have benefited from that. Maybe I’m misunderstanding everybody involved in this conversation....

Grover Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 (edited) I really want to stay out of this debate but there is no comparison (at least at CG) of the numbers of transfers. Our program loses more kids than it brings in due to the transfer rule. Not sure we have any kids playing today that are transfers in but we have kids we've lost to Cathedral, Indian Creek, and Greenwood to name a few.

Perry Township charges $4400 for out of district students. I live in Perry Township and I receive 2-3 pieces of mail a month from other public school districts (CG and BG). Beech Grove actively recruits and charges over $4000 for out of district. There is also a big difference between parochial and private! Parochial schools do have districts (deaneries). Chatard, Ritter, Scecina and Roncalli are parochial schools with defined borders. By written agreement, schools do not recruit outside of their districts In my opinion, CYO feeder program is the biggest advantage for Catholic schools. It is not that CYO competition is better, it is that there are so many more teams. Perry Meridian and Southport each have one middle school with one MS football team. They develop 15-20 starters that will enter the HS each year. There are 9 middle schools feeding Roncalli, 9 middle schools feeding Chatard, 4 middle schools feeding Scecina, and 5 middle schools feeding Ritter. In years past, there were anywhere from 10-15 middle school football teams feeding Roncalli each year. That number is now 6-8 but that means that there are 6-8 experienced players developed at each position. The shear numbers of experienced players entering each freshman class is an advantage. Brebeuf and Cathedral are private schools (not parochial) with no districts. BTW, Roncalli huge OL are all underclassman, sophomores with a one first year junior. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With vouchers there are some folks than can make it work for a similar cost that it cost for my kid to attend an out-of-district school. One of my kids attends public school in a different district than where we live and we pay a differential for that to happen ... and when my youngest follows him, we'll have to also pay that differential again.

Staxawax Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Pioneer is starting to look like a 6A program. They beat 6A Chesterton, and beat an Andrean team that, according to the OP, should be playing in 4A. 😁 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The TW Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 This has been covered many times over the years. The parochial schools do not limit their enrollments. They have placement exams, not enrollment exams. None of the four are close to full, which means staffs have to be cut. Shockingly, football classifications do not drive or even figure into their conversations. There are other advantages, but limiting enrollment is not one that Roncalli, Chatard, Scecina, or Ritter have the luxury of employing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
