is and subtract one. That will be AWylie's
enrollment.

Just don't be jealous cuz people actually WANT to move to Wylie as opposed to Sweetwater and Snyder...where the enrollment number keeps going DOWN!!! :thinking: :p

Easy there 410. Wylie has absolutely 0 industry. It is just attached to Abilene, and gets everybody that is moving out of Abilene. Sweetwater and Snyder have to rely on industry. Dont try comparing apples to oranges now.

Not sure what Canyon's enrollment is, it's up there though. The rumor is that we should make it through two more realignments and then we will bump up. They just passed new boundary lines that will move large amounts of kids from Canyon-Randall into the Canyon school. But they aren't doing it with the older kids, just the younger ones to start.

I know you are smarter than that! I believe that would be a district that VAMPIRES off if a City next to it. At least Snyder and Sweetwater are Cities and not Suburbs. We have unique Identities. Wylie, Cooper, Ab High all the same except some have harder time fudging the #s than others apparently:rolleyes:

Yes, I am pretty sure that 573 is fairly accurate. I cant tell you where I got that from, but it is a very reliable source.

My question on this is... Why?
What about Bushland? Is that taking some of the Amarillo High students away since some of the growth is out west of I-40?

I'm no expert on what's going on, but I don't think the lines have moved up that far. This change was simply to slow the rapidly growing number of students at Randall and kinda balance it out here at Canyon. It's a big issue right now, so nobody's sure how its gonna work out. But Canyon will definitely move up to 4A by the end of 4 year's time.

According to today's paper. There are 150 students from the Wylie ISD attending Abilene ISD. AISD stopped charging tution a few years ago, so many of the families that have moved from the AISD to Wylie's district have decided to keep thier children in the AISD for many different reasons. If you add those 150 students that put is in 4A. I see more and more subdivision going up, but with AIDS not charging tution who knows what those families will decide.

Again...get some facts before opening mouth. Abilene's numbers are going down...the only schools going up are Wylie and Jim Ned. Consider the following points...if you are capable of it...

- Wylie is the #1 ranked school in terms of academic achievement in 3A. I am basing this off of a study done on TAKS numbers across all districts k-12. I can pull it up for you if you want.

- Wylie is a community that is VERY supportive of all things in the school district, whether it be football, band, golf, academic teams, etc. The level of success aside, what parent would NOT want to put their kids in a school district that offers a system that will allow their kids to reach their full potential (academic, athletic, or otherwise) if they choose to do so?

Now I do realize this may require you to use a little bit of common sense to put the pieces together...but you have shown the ability to do so once or twice a year in your posts so let's go for the trifecta on this one! :thumbsup:

others said they have ROTC and many other programs Wylie did not have and to yop things off one said they did not see difference in the education they were getting. Your are right about Wylie scores. My son attends wylie and we get the score results every year and they are always in the higher than most school dists.

My son attends wylie and we get the score results every year and they are always in the higher than most school dists.

Having spent 1st through 8th in Abilene schools...there is a BIG difference in the level of education that I received in Wylie. Yes there is ROTC available in AISD along with more foreign language classes...but that would be the only different "offerings" between the two. As a way to "boost" their grades...the typical AISD student is an "honors" student and they get 5pts on their 6-weeks grade and the "AP" students get 10 points. A "regular" class in AISD is typically set aside for students with learning disabilities and/or remedial students that failed the "honors" course the year before. So in essence, they are LOSING points on their GPA for not being at least an "average" student."

In Wylie there is only "honors/pre-AP/AP" as one program and you get the extra 10 points for the harder class. A typical student is not given 5pts for showing up to class.

I will have to read that when I get home. That is funny about the car cuz my first car was definitely a 1985 Volvo that my dad bought for me for $800...and I paid $200 of it. I wasn't even given a car...I worked at least 1 job at all times during HS and was never given anything. Did my dad have a "good job" that paid more than most people? Yes...but did that mean that I, or most of the kids in Wylie, was spoiled by any means??? No...

I really do not understand either, because I know for a fact that not all Wylie kids had cars. I bought one for my daughter, but she also worked from the time she was 15 until she graduated. Now she is attending college at Angelo State, but when she comes home she for the winter and summer breaks she continues to work and she had now problem adjusting to the real world.

I agree, that Wylie is one helluva good school district, and they certainly have the scores to prove it. But then again, why wouldnt they? Pretty much only the socioeconomic elite get to attend school out there. Wylie ISD doesnt have to face what 99% of the other ISDs in the state have to every day. How many single parent kids go to Wylie? How many economically dissadvantaged kids go to Wylie? How many free lunches does the Wylie ISD have to serve? Wylie is a self made community of elites, and they are reeping the benifits of it. Dont get me wrong, if I lived in Abilene, I would have certainly put my kid through Wylie. But, the truth is, Wylie is on its own little Island out there. It is not the real world, like most kids live in everyday.
Again, I am not at all knocking Wylie, for what they are and/or for what they have. No doubt, Wylie ISD, is a great school system. But lets make sure we see things for what they are.
That being said. I hope Wylie does not go to 4A next year. I love this district, and would hate to see it broken up. Sweetwater and Wylie have developed a very good rivalry over the past few years, and I for one, would love to see it continue. One of my favorite parts of the football season the last few years has been our off week, so I could go watch the Snyder / Wylie game. That has also developed into a great rivalry as well.

Where do you get at using the term elite? Are you trying to say that Wylie is an affluent district? To make that claim...you would have to be highly mistaken. Half of Wylie is made up of farming communities. Simply because there is a lower # of lower income families does not make it a rich district. It simply means that there aren't as many lower income families in the district. Heck...take Graham for example...I can name 5 families in Graham that have more money than the entire community of Wylie. I'm not kidding either. Wylie does have some afflluent familes but what the district is made up of roughly 90% of "middle income" families. Feel free to come over to the district and start asking people if they feel that they are "elite." An "elite" district would be a HP, Southlake, Alamo Hieghts, Austin Westlake, Houston Memorial...but I would NOT lump Abilene Wylie in with them and one would have to be ignorant to reality to do so.

You keep using phrases to describe Wylie...but please define them so that we are both clear what you are trying to say.

elite - ???

self-made community - are you aware that Wylie started out as a farming community and only in the last 15-20 years did people from "the city" grow into Wylie??? Heck, the house in Wylie that I lived in was built in the 1930's and all of my neighbors have at least 2 acres with horses, cattle, etc but now we are essentially "in the middle of Abilene." Wylie has evolved into the city...but it's not the "gated community" that many people make it out to be

not in the real world - what isn't real world about it? Having spent 13 years in ABI schools, 1 year in Corpus schools, and 5 years in Wylie schools...the biggest differences that I have seen are in the level of academics being tought at the school. Yes there are obviously some economic differences but they were by no means overbearing in such a way that they effect life THAT much.

I'm tired of typing for now so I'm not going to but please feel free to answer these questions. I am trying to figure out what misconceptions people have about where I grew up. Thanks...

Was the land that all of the farmers and ranchers owned bought for pennies on the dollar or what? Evolving into a city takes money and purchase of land. Usually that land is sold for an inflated price, especially in the case of selling farm and ranch land for city growth.

huh??? I didn't express any emotion whatsoever. I love people misconstrue trying to have an informed, intelligent discussion about a topic as being "emotional" about it. Why must one use that as a cop out as opposed to answering the questions? I just want to have a discussion.

Unlike many on here, I have no "current" loyalty to Wylie other than that I went to HS there. I followed the teams the last 2 years because it was comprised of a lot of kids I have known since they were little as they had grown up with my younger brothers. In all honesty, I can assure you that the frequency with which I attend and follow HS football will drop significantly in the next 12 months. There...I guess that is my "emotion" on display for you. However, my desire to follow a team because I know players on it has nothing to do with a discussion of a community and it's economic and social makeups. I got a degree in Economics because this something that I enjoy learning about and discussing. We could discuss the makeup of any town that I have at least a working knowledge of it and I will talk about it with you...if nothing else than to further my knowledge of that particular community. In this case, others just happened to bring up a community that I have a wealth of relevant information on in regards to the topic at hand.

So don't be afraid...dive right in and let's talk about it on a normal level as opposed to one where you might fear "stepping" on my toes. My family now lives in Graham and I don't really know many people in Wylie so it doesn't offend me in the least with any comments you may have to offer.

the farms are STILL there. They haven't gone anywhere. Wylie didn't evolve into anything. The city of Abilene grew out to Wylie. As somebody else pointed out, Wylie has very little commercial and essentially no industrial (unless you include farm/ranch land though that is actually agrarian) division to it.

A guy in San Angelo who I know through a business venture told me about a year ago that... and I quote "If you took the three banks in Graham and totalled up all their monies together that they had, you would be extremely surprised at the amount of money that little town has". He was knowing of this because he used to work with a banker in Graham in the late 80's and early 90's. I wouldn't think that has changed much, as Graham has had some very wealthy families due to highway construction company, bleacher company, and oil and gas.

Yeah, AIDS stopped charging when the 'ol Chicken Ranch shut down. It's free these days.

Exactly. Wylie was a hoss on the state level back when I was in HS, and I've only been out for about seven years.

He was knowing of this because he used to work with a banker in Graham in the late 80's and early 90's. I wouldn't think that has changed much, as Graham has had some very wealthy families due to highway construction company, bleacher company, and oil and gas.

Yeah, we're freakin' RICH!!! I met one of those 5 people the other day when I was at lunch. He offered me a job paying $75K a year with a 4,000 sq. ft. house and an '06 Escalade but I had to turn him down. I like my '95 Dodge a lot better. JK. But I did meet the guy. Ask Adidas, if you came here you really couldn't tell that it's like that, especially if you looked at our H.S. My friend's GRANDFATHER, his GRANDFATHER walked the same halls I walk everyday. I don't think they've put in new lockers since the freakin' Carter Administration.

Decatur turned in 871 or so. 2 more years and we should be in 4A.

I'm not sure if he does anymore or not. But one of the Wall Grandkids (grand kids of the guy who started Wal-Mart) moved into the biggest house in our town a few months ago.
