So parents are now empowered as to which class it is appropriate for their homeschool child to attend and not attend within a public school district? It may be allowed by the Texas senate, but it certainly fails the smell test as far as I am concerned.
I do know varsity athletic period starts at 1:30 I'm sure that kid could get their academic classes done by then same as public an attend a athletic class at 1:30 that the senate has allowed that child to attend. It's not that difficult.

Do you know of many schools that would let a kid (not a student of the school) show up and participate in a class? Especially an athletics class...where there is running and weight lifting. Because I don't know of any. There are some legal / safety issues there when talking about kids that aren't enrolled as students.
It's called a physical ALL athletes have to get one every year not that hard for a homeschool kid to get one
-
It's not that hard to show up every week M-F to that particular athletic class and do the same physical requirements as that public student

Athletics period is a CLASS that happens during the school day. A class that is used every single day for the team as a preparation of sorts.
That's right it is a CLASS so why would the kid not go? I'm sure they can manage to do their work and show up to that CLASS everyday M-F

Do you honestly think that I would give a crap about a younger sibling doing something better than an older sibling? I'll say it again. If I were coaching...a kid that missed the athletic period EVERY SINGLE DAY would not come off of the bench. I truly do not care what they do or claim to be doing on their own time. Did you play sports? Because if you ever missed a practice and told the coach " but coach, I did my own practice. Just ask my dad" that wouldn't fly. Not with any coach I ever had.
The UIL may say that homeschool kids are allowed to play...but when or how much they play is 100% up to the coach. And every coach I know would not allow a kid to miss that much time that the rest of the team has to attend...and play. So there you go. Nothing personal. And nothing against homeschool kids. But, if they miss any type of workout, walk thru, meeting, film session, etc. that every other teammate is at then they don't deserve to play in the game.
Why do you assume they will miss? That's what I'm trying to figure out. They would still be going to Everything that is involved in athletics.

So the school system was good enough for one child to set records but not good enough for the younger sibling?
Where did you all find this Indian at?
Why do you think it has anything to do with the school district? That's not always the case.

That's fine...and very well may be the case. But there is more to consider than just the academic side of it. Homeschool kids are not held to the same standard of dress, behavior, attendance, etc...like those that attend a public school and actually have to show up on time every single day to 7/8 different classes. Learn how to interact with teachers/students a certain way while staying out of trouble (according to the school policy). PLUS.. I can't get past the idea of a kid playing that doesn't go through the athletics period / workouts every single day. Or ever.
I can promise you that if I were coaching and had a homeschool kid on the roster the parents would be constantly wondering why the kid never came off the bench. And I would say that it's because he/she hadn't worked out during the period all week. If you think I wouldn't then you apparently don't know me very well.
If an athletic period is 50 minutes long...5 days a week...for 36 weeks. That's 9000 minutes (give or take some days) of working out, walk thru, film watching, game preparation... that a homeschool kid will miss. Yeah. Wouldn't play for me.
Do you honestly think that he/ she would just show up for only game day? No, they would still put in the hours just like every other public school student. The bill has been passed by the senate in 2015, so yes soon homeschool kids will be playing UIL sports. Would it be different if one of the public school main star athlete had a younger brother who was homeschooled? Wouldn't you like to give that younger brother a chance to break his brothers records?

If the school is not good enough for the child to attend daily like all the other students at that particular school, why is the football team or other extracurricular activity good enough?
I think a home schooled kid would have a tough time being accepted by his/her other teammates on that particular team, jmo...
Why? I'm sure many homeschool kids are in extra curricular activities throughout their community.
-
May 11 2015 the senate passed the bill so yes, homeschool kids can and eventually will play in public school sports, so really everyone's opinion doesn't matter.
-
I think it's already been passed by the state of Texas. Homeschool isn't always mommy heading your papers. Most schools are accredited and the parents mail off their work every so many weeks to be graded. Some not all home school curriculum is harder than public school usually the accredited ones have the same curriculum as local private schools in this area.

That looked brutal and intentionally

PNG will be good next year, but College Station returns QB and RB next year. Don't see anyone from our area beating them next year.
They just have a bad OL that can give the QB all day to throw and Rb to run

Agreed, I wonder if losing WR like McZeal and McGough forces us to use Hughes at WR since before this years SR RB was hurt he was slated to be a wideout anyways. He came in a was VERY productive at RB. Im just curious as to how we replace those guys but heck its next man up
The kid was on fire as WR during 7 on 7 just a good all round athlete

What are the odds we see #11 on the field this week with his hand in the dirt rushing the passer? Little more pressure on the QB could make that secondary look good!
I think someone said he is cleared on the 26

Enough with the 99 team it's 2016 we're not at a class reunion. I hope these boys take it all the way to state so we will be hearing about the 2016 team for now on

I think this game will be like BH game down to the last second. I hope I'm wrong and we destroy them early on.

No not everyone knows how bad the secondary is but you! If I'm not mistaking PNG's last 2 losses came by way of running it down our throats. PAM& Angelton. I'm not sure why you have such a problem with the secondary? Yes they have gave up some TD'S but isn't that the name of the game? Don't other teams try to score as hard as we try to stop them? They are playing very well, teams will score. I guess you might be happy if we shut everyone out and have 4 picks a game. Smh you need to turn your fandom card in. This team is doing something special and all I ever see on your post is how bad secondary is playing. Your a joke no one wants to hear your negativity. I don't want to hear how your a realist bs comments either. So please tell us why they are so bad? Stattrac help me with the stats I'm pretty sure the terrible secondary you speak of didn't have 10 TD'S thrown against them before playoffs started. BH games was not good, we won and they overcome and made plays when it mattered the most. I'm sure I'm not the only one tired of hearing you bash them! So instead of talking trash on them on line, go to the Monday night meeting and ask BF why his secondary sucks so bad.
It's easy to talk smack behind a computer screen. Having the nuts to do it to BF face is a next level see you Monday tradenupBH

I don't know for a fact, but I'm assuming they would be enrolled at the public school for just that one particular class. I'm sure there is some loop hole we're not aware of for the senate to pass this.
