Well, it wasn't as "breaking" as the lead-in made it seem. :doh: It should be decided in the next couple of months, after TAKS scores are in.

Heck, I feel badly for them. In the fall, when they had to cancel several games because of too many ineligible players, they had "academic pep rallies".

I know they've been on the unacceptable list for quite some time. Some parents last year had a big hissy when the threats to close came from AISD because "nobody told them things were bad". :doh:
