Gipper Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 1 hour ago, Obi-Wan said: Does this run the risk of high schools "Tanking" to drop a class to have more success? I didn't see that on this thread in any other post, unless I missed it. Also how does the IHSAA combat "Tanking"? That is a very valid question--thank you for your insight. That is one reason why I'm not in favor this this. Another one, what would be done with the class 1A schools. Have them run cross country or play volleyball?

psaboy Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 So how do you determine if a team gets bumped down due to being competitively challenged, who gets bumped up?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that what the NSF would prevent? They consolidated because Turkey Runs was about to go under. They were already under the same school board and superintendent with Rockville.

Therefore a consolidation would save $ on administrative staff like a superintendent. False they’ve been under the same umbrella for over 10 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they hate each other, north hates the south. STATE LAW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I don't believe that they would, but I just pose the question. What, other than pride stops this from happening? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
temptation Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 You know me...I want a success factor that combines enrollment with free/reduced lunch rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superjay Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Allow schools to opt out of the tournament and schedule another game or games. School could only opt out during enrollment count years. Another option would be to allow schools to petition the IHSAA to move down a class. Petition requirements could be socioeconomic factors, win/loss records, longevity of poor performance in current class, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a spreadsheet called school-enrollment-ethnicity-and-free-reduced-price-meal-status-2006-20-1.xlsx on the site that contains ethnicity as well as free/reduced numbers. Have to use a little Excel skill to get rates, but fairly doable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing the percentage calculation for Frankfort High school using the data from that spreadsheet matches the 68% now listed as "Economically Disadvantaged" on the FHS inview.doe.in.gov website. Why the DOE switched to using a more PC nomenclature instead of just "Free/Reduced Meals" is interesting: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
