So the Vashon/Mexico playoff basketball game got me thinking. Clearly Vashon pulls the best from within STLPS otherwise there wouldn’t kbe such a gap for the last 60+ years from them and the other STLPS.

1. How many school districts have open enrollment within the district. (Obviously ones that have 2 or more High schools)?

2. Should they be subject to some sort of championship factor?

Could you imagine lees summit or blue springs open enrollment

There are definitely schools districts that could build some absolute powerhouses.

I’ll have to look it up when I have time but I believe there is a bill that passed the house that specifically talks about intradistrict open enrollment

STLPS NKCSD Springfield are the ones I can think of - Im sure there is more
 
Lee's Summit already has that. At least five players from LSN have moved over to Lee's Summit to be with the new highly successful coach from the great state of Colorado that kicked butt last year.
No joey they do not have Intradistric enrollment. LSN was a habitual recruiter pulling kids from anywhere in LS and also pulling in Grandview and raytown talent. My guess is now that the particular lsn coach is gone they just moving back home.

The recruiting at the HS level is crazy

When Lee's Summit West was the chosen school, the LS School district did an audit. Several players were listed at an apartment address that was vacant. A little bird told me.

If they do not have open enrollment, why are players moving from LSN to Lee's Summit--at least half a dozen so far? I guess their parents got a new home?

it takes 0 effort to look this up on a district website

i know you think everyone gets the correct way like those 2 dowling catholic boys just up and moving junior year but they recruit harder at the high school level in KC than most colleges do
 
There are probably more public schools that recruit than there are private schools in the state.
not a fair comparison but you are correct. The problem isn't the recruiting because that's illegal and if MSHSAA would stop paying the leadership so much they may be able to afford investigators and stop it. The problem is MSHSAA allows this intradistrict BS without 1 a Champ factor and 2 separating privates and intradistrict enrollment away from true residential boundary schools

Since not all schools (private or public)are created equal here is your master plan for Missouri:
All classes are divided just as they are now.
Add a class for all schools the exceed the largest class.
All privates are automatically bumped 1 class.
Modify championship factor for Private schools. No class jump cap. Points are changed to 1 point for state championship appearance and 2 points for state titles over 5 years instead of 6. 1 point to jump a class and 2 points every class after that.
Add a championship factor for public schools. 1 point for state championship appearance and 2 points for state titles over 3 years. 3 points to jump a class and 6 to jump 2. For districts with intradistrict open enrollment 2 points for 1 class, 5 points for 2.
Public schools with open enrollment will just a class every 2 points.

There you go, equality, equity, socialism and capitalism all in 1.

Nah we just take any high-school that doesn't have seperate boundaries from others and put them by themselves lol

I agree with this, but let me ask a question: aren’t you guys the same folks who want to give public school money to private schools in the form of vouchers and who want statewide open enrollment to provide “opportunity” to people? What’s the difference?

Difference is that's all open, the current format we are against because only some have open. For example kids from st louis city and county can go anywhere in stl city. Where as kids from oak grove can only go oak grove, Odessa and grain valley and almost every other public in the state the same.

The dudes you vote for that 'work' in jeff city are blocking that.

You don't expect them to send their kids to public schools do you?

They aren't going to diminish that advantage for the privileged.

County kids can not go to city schools.
