A parent that has a kid that will be the starting quarterback, point guard...................now has a group of public school kids come in and he is suddenly dropped to the 3rd string. That **** will not go over well. You already have parents in Madison leaving their kids in public schools until Jr High and then switching them to JA, Prep, MRA........in order for them to actually see playing time in the sports they play.
Another side that I heard of the argument was that these private schools cannot take a lot of these kids. Many of these kids, allegedly, would be behind in the classroom compared to the kids in their same grade and it would cause a nightmare for the teachers and staff. I heard this discussed between a couple of board members at a local private school in Jackson. It hit me a little funny like it was racist, or a form of segregation.....but to be honest with you, they may be dead on accurate and it may pose a real problem that will have to be addressed in these private schools.
