They do call it the ghetto school now. It's waaaaayyy overrcrowded, and the new M.S. that's gonna open up isn't really gonna relieve it.
I guess it all started at Stevens HS. Then on Monday during that big morning storm, Stevenson's principal pulled all the classes from the portables and made them go to the cafeteria and a rumor about a gun was the reason why.
Of course, my son never said a word since he didn't take it seriously.
I went to Stevenson, too -- Wildcat Pride, baby! In fact, my name is probably still on a championship board in the boys' gym.
Of course when I was there, the school hadn't even been open for 10 years and was in the middle of nowhere.
i think they had just started to put portables up my 7th grade year... i remember because it ed up the route for the mile run.
i can't imagine how many kids go their now... because it was a load when i went.
Over 1800.
O'Connor will be over 3400 kids next year. I'm still not sure if we will be switching to Brandeis next year
damn... it's bigger than a lot of high schools
it's really not that big of a school either... unless they added some buildings, which i recall they did on the guilbeau side.
They probably did, but not recently. A lot of portables, though. Braun Station ES opened up a new building last.
I guess years ago there was a bond to build a new MS to relieve Stevenson, but it didn't pass.
I went to private school
i broke my arm at stevenson playing football for rudder, lol! damn stevenson has about 800 more kids than the total population at my high school! (I graduated from 4A Fredericksburg High...Billie Pride! uber alles!!!!)
Texans poop out way too many kids it appears to me.
Northside is out of control!
really? what about the elementary school kid that brought a gun to school (or somethin like that) on the west side of town?
any elrod elementary grads in the house?
i can still recite our school song by memory... it was pretty bad ass.
lol i went to fernandez from K-2 and thornton from 3-5
I'm talking about the growth of NISD
sorry, thought you were talkin about the hitlist
Linton, Sul Ross and Holmes, mu as!
Nah...I blame KB Homes and Pulte.
KSAT just reported that some students responsible for the threats have been arrested. Other students turned them in.
Good!
I'm glad that Stevenson took this seriously.
I think you will switch to Brandeis.
I've heard yes and no. My friend's husband is a principal in Northside and he hasn't heard either way yet either.
Seniors will be grandfathered in at OC and I think Juniors have the option...especially if they are involved in school sports, etc.
It's been crazy in the 20 years or so since I was a middle schooler. When I started Middle School at Stevenson, there were 8 middle schools in the district (Stevenson, Rudder, Hobby, Neff, Anson Jones, Pease, Sam Rayburn, and Sul Ross). Now there are 14. There were 4 high schools in the Northside district when I started middle school (Marshall, Holmes, Jay, and Clark). Now there are 10.
When I started at Stevenson, the attendance zone for the school was basically defined by Bandera Road, running out what is now Mainland Road to Heath Road, cutting over on Heath to Grissom, going out Grissom/Culebra to 1604 and then back to Bandera, but including all of Helotes as far out as San Antonio Ranch. At that, the school probably had fewer than 1,500 students and was housed entirely in one building with about 3 portables at most.
Now that same area is served by at least 4 middle schools (Stevenson, Zachry, Stinson, and Jefferson (when it opens). Amazing.
how many more high schools is northside coming out with?
