The City of Nederland's as well. As far as mat's statement about lack of industry, Nederland does tax Sunoco and some of the tank farms near it, but no, they don't have near the industrial tax base of BMT or PA. The low taxes are a testament to good management by the city and NISD to provide services without raising taxes. That said, I am not against a small raise in taxes to build new schools and infrastructure. We must keep investing in our children and our city to move forward.

The High School, in 1974 I think. The rest were built in the early 60s, with Langham being the oldest, built in the 1930s.

They approved a bond in 2012 that upgraded HVAC, added security and some other things for all the schools. The proposition to build a new middle school and an elementary did fail.

yeah, i am late to the party I know.

I didn't want to get the PA stadium thread too far off topic, but Nederland facilities came up so I figured I would start a new thread. NISD commissioned a demographic study that shows that there will be 6,145 kids (district-wide) by 2023/24 and 6,565 by 2027/28. Hopefully this will spur a bond issue to build some new schools.

He posted that he is now at home! (as of yesterday)

hopefully. He was one of I think three new trustees elected this year.

he was elected.

Glad your doing better buddy. Get well and the "assistant wardens" will do our best to keep this thing going smoothly.

I resemble that remark.

Take it slow man and heal. We will take care of the Warden duties.

So on one hand you say that PNG was out coached, but still talk about a watered down field. Lol. Which one beat your team? It didn't seem to slow down Roschon.

Still making excuses. What about the last 7 years? Some of those games were at the reservation.

good point, but to be fair, PNG hasn't had a coach that "knows how to beat Nederland " in about 25 years.

So shug's playing all RB positions?

I think this thread needs to get back to the topic and back on the rails. Please.

I'm not familiar with him. Which middle school is he at and what does he coach now? (Assuming DC but I could be wrong.)

oh, who?

Is it on microfiche?

Hmm, seeing as Ned had a 6 game streak against Central until last year and an 8 year streak until the end against Ozen (56-6 final) we will see I guess.

What happened with Vidor vs KP?

I have updated some of the rivalries under the History page and added the vaunted "Ned vs Vidor rivalry!"

Nederland vs Vidor - There is always a lot of discussion about this "rivalry" , but these two teams started playing in 1940 and it took Vidor 35 years to beat Nederland for the first time. Nederland leads this series 58-10-1.

Lol. You hope. Seeing as neither Central or Ozen has beaten Nederland consistently in the last 10 years or so I am not seeing how this is going to change.

I was going to point that out as well. Ozen hasn't been to the playoffs since 2014 and hasn't had a winning record since 2011 but they still send kids to college on scholarships.
