No, they don't.

Last realignment OF was 541.

 

Latest count was in the upper 520s

And I think that's a complete load of crap.

You can laugh all you want to. This has happened with OF for the last 2 realignments. I can see being just a few under once. Then it happened twice. A third time in my opinion would warrant an investigation. Getting lucky happens. Twice can be a coincidence. Three times there's something more to it.

You should volunteer to audit the numbers. Put in a request with UIL and TEA.

Hearing Tarkington is a likely drop down. 

I think the 3A numbers are going to go up this year.  Since it didn’t move last time I see it going up by 15 or 20

I should, or maybe people could just play by the rules? Like I said 3-5 kids under for 2 consecutive counts, ok, it's close. If it happens again for a 3rd consecutive count something is going on.

If you have some evidence of OF doing something illegal you should report it to UIL. Sounds like you have some serious information.

It's clear in my comments I'm giving my opinion. It won't change if the same results happen this time around.

Understood, you are just making things up that you want to be true.

No, nothing I said was made up. It's 100% true OF has barely been under the last 2 counts. It's my opinion if that happens for a 3rd time it's not a coincidence.

Sounds like someone's team that they root for hasn't beaten OF in the past 6 years and wants them out of 3a. I personally have their numbers down from this last alignment, but who knows

I don't think it's only OF does this kind of thing. I think it happens all over the state. I'm only using OF because of the "coincidences" of being one of the largest 3A schools in the state for the last 2 alignments, and they are in setx. 541 last time and 544 was the cutoff. In my opinion it would be difficult for them to decrease in numbers with everything going on for industry in that area of setx.

If they aren't an open enrollment school then they can pretty much control their own numbers by choosing to accept or deny transfers. Which means they would be able to be just under the cut off every time. Nothing wrong with it. And lets not just act like OF is dominating in every sport. Are they good? Of course. But they aren't making regional runs and further in every sport. I am not sure why OF is rubbing you the wrong way.

It is 100% true that you have no evidence that OF has done anything nefarious. It is also 100% true that your accusations are “made up” and based solely on your “imagination”.

Unless you have some proof?

There are also instances all over the state of schools who regularly fall just a few students over the cutoff for the classification. With the way the snapshot works it would be hard to cheat the system consistently because they set the enrollment for alignment based off the data from snapshot numbers if I understand it correctly.

The numbers are the numbers. I didn't make those up. They're facts. Don't ignore them. My accusations are not "imaginary" because they have the basis of previous enrollment numbers. (If it happens) 3 consecutive times just short of moving up to 4A is most certainly worthy of asking the question: What are they doing and how are they doing it? Especially with that particular area of setx growing.

I agree. Falling just a few short happens. I'm not talking about it happening once.

I am aware, I am saying it happens more than once a lot. On both sides of being above or below the line, because the UIL needs to keep a certain number of schools in each classification/division.

I spoke to the superintendent last night, we are definitely smaller than 2 years ago.

[navydawg31]

Stop with the rumor chatter/accusing OF on doing something illegal or not. Or any school at that matter. If you have proof send it in to UIL if not. Then this needs to stop immediately and get back on the subject…

[AggiesAreWe]

Such silly talk.

OF is not manipulating to stay 3A

This has turned into an interesting thread.......🙄
