Big article in Sunday's San Antonio metro paper about a possible future six-man school ... but reading the article, maybe they'll have crowded field numbers by the time they get around to it.
Doesn't hurt your enrollment numbers when you run buses into school districts 60 miles or so out of your district to pick up kids, though.
School in Eagle Ford Shale swells with newcomers

TILDEN — Every weekday morning, the rumble of buses dropping off students at McMullen County's only public school gets drowned out by the heavy trucks whizzing by on Texas 16.
Tilden is a small town, and with 235 students in pre-K through 12th grades, the school is small, too — even after enrollment jumped 42 percent in a year and a half.
Outside, students can see the reason: drilling rigs in the distance. At recess, they run, slide and swing at a new playground built with corporate donations, a list brimming with names including Petrohawk Energy, Chesapeake Energy, Rush Truck Centers.

One other thing to consider. Out of all the schools that fit into this basketball division. The commie-pinko make up roughly 15 to 18 percent. (I didn't do the exact math). Now compare that to the percentages that were in each round of the playoffs.

Question: Are there any schools that only play football and choose to not play basketball? (Our boys closely resemble that, but they do in fact have a basketball team)

Horns: It would be kinda cruel not to have something for the boys to do between football and spring football seasons (oops, I forget, we private schools can have spring football at all levels; I guess track is a substitute for spring football).

That's true, but I think its cruel to not offer football. And I think its cruel to put those non football schools in our basketball district too.lifegatesports":2a3j5cmc said:

Here is another fact for ya.
34 playoff matchups with commie-pinko vs football schools. Commie-pinko went 24-10.
34 playoff matchups with commie-pinko vs football schools. Commie-pinko went 24-10.
Midland Early College High School has no football or any other sport. Please add it to your pinko commie school list.
The kids in that school (9-12 grade) are on a program where at the end of 4 years they graduate with a high school degree plus an associates degree if they stick with the program (the classes are all at the local community college). You apply in 8th grade, get interviewed and go through a selection process. If the kid gets in and completes the program s/he is going to save his/her parents 2 years worth of college expenses.
They pick @ 25 students from each junior high out of the applicants. So my kid is telling me that a lot of the boys don't apply because they don 't want to miss out on HS football and a lot of the girls don't apply becuase they don't want to miss out on the HS prom. I, on the other hand, looked at what college costs these days and told my kid not only was she going to apply, but hell yes she was going to apply. Now we are waiting to see if my kid's interviewing skills are sufficient to save me several grand $.
(Oh and a lot of kids didn't want to apply because the counselors made it clear that if you get in the program you'll be doing some serious work - I was informed by one of my kid's friends that high school was for having a good time not for working your azz off.)
