Interesting SI Article HSFB and Open Enrollment tale

[BackinBlack86]

Basically about how open enrolment (school choice) has effected the landscape of public high school football in Arizona. Pretty crazy. Are we starting to see some of this in DE with certain programs?

There’s a bursting population and a loose approach to school zoning, so the best players follow the winds—and the wins, and the money.

It's a long article but interesting. I will post some relevant excerpts if that is of interest..

I would love to see a journalist do an in depth article like this on the effects of school choice and how the landscape has changed and has been changing in this state. Not sure who would be able to get the access like this reporter was able to get to really tell the whole story though.

It is interesting. One of my friends from Colorado is now living in Arizona. Her son is Hamilton's kicker, and a good one. I was wondering why they left Colorado, she has a real estate business there and her husband works there.
