I think it's time for a hometown Bird to land back in HD.

Farmer Fran!  Haven't heard from you on here in a while!  Welcome back!

It's time for a Bird to land.

I can vouch for HD9.  He was a very good football player.  I'm sure he doesn't care what you guys think, but I think it's probably time for the personal stuff to stop.  I'm sure there is something in the rules about personal attacks against other posters.  We are all adults here and can agree that the glory days have passed us all by!

Yeah I remember him being a really good player.  Didn't translate into wins over HD, but a good player none the less! haha ;)

Nailed it.  That's the point.  Not Ozen, not Atkins, but Chargois.  Thomas ----> Chargois is the issue here.

I say we keep this thread on topic and leave the personal stuff out of it so someone doesn't lock this thread like they did the other one.  I'm really interested in seeing how this is handled.

Wait, I'm having trouble believing that Babin would make the move from dville to warren. Seems like a lateral move at best. Unless there are some things going on at Deweyville that we don't know about. Is this confirmed?

This is a terrible situation.  In all of the BISD nonsense, the kids are the losers. 

This is huge for Warren.

Yeah, all these things are happening because the leaders of BISD are black.  Get out of here with that weak crap ozenfinest. 
 
If that demonic media would just leave BISD alone, no one would know about any of this stuff and BISD could get away with it.  That's the result some of you would enjoy. 

it seems to me that everyone is missing the point.  if the coach really told chargois about the problem, and I believe he probably did, and chargois chose not to say anything to the board members, which appears to be true, the only conclusion is that chargois knew how toxic the topic would be and chose not to say anything because he knew the board would never go for the hire in the first place.  this is not about media scrutiny - this is about a school official having knowledge about something that is apparently important to many people - and then choosing to take a road that would lead to all of this trouble.  it should be the credibility of the superintendent that is being questioned, not the coach - and not the media. 
 
this has nothing to do with Kirbyville or hull-daisetta.  this is solely about a lack of leadership and a problem with credibility.

Wow guys. You're ok with a guy who lost his certification for having an improper relationship with a student being hired by Bisd? I'm beginning to see what the real problem is in Beaumont.

The issue isn't whether other districts have had scattered improper incidents, the issue is that BISD has one improper incident after another.  It's constant, and it needs to stop.  The biggest thing I see is that the leadership at BISD (and apparently some community members) are so arrogant as to think they can still do whatever they want.  Hence the hiring of Atkins.  It was disclosed at some point, and that information wasn't given to all of the board members.  Once again, a few in leadership are believing that they can hide info from others, in order to accomplish whatever it is they have on their agenda.

Bluedove is stricken with victim-itis. There's not a cure for it.

In my opinion, if you work in education and you get caught having an improper relationship with a student, there should be no second chances.  When parents trust you with their children, and you abuse that trust, you are no longer fit to be alone with students.  If BISD did not know this info and hired him, they should be ashamed of their background check system.  If they knew it and hired him, they should just be flat out ashamed.  Either way, the kids at Ozen are the ones who lose in this situation.  No way Atkins survives this.
