Crown Point Gets a Two For....

Isn't it funny how CP emphasized being good at football and it seems to have elevated all other sports. Yes, some other sports like wrestling were already doing well but it seems all sports are improving there. Football is the single most important sport in your building. It sets the tone and culture for your whole building.

I think they are both good additions. Interested to see how CP reloads after losing a good senior class.

On X they have posted twice already about the transfer rule coming from the IHSAA, CP is a closed enrollment school district to my knowledge, odd to promote that from their football twitter account.

As I stated above, they care about and value athletics. If you can play, they'll make sure to get you in. No one wants to say that out loud BUT it is what it is. I'm sure a CP "admin" or "someone with knowledge" will jump in and tell me that "CP doesn't do that" but there's a Girls basketball State Championship in the trophy case that says otherwise. Disclosure: I AM NOT HATING. Just pointing out that schools that play ball tend to win more than those that don't. Buzz isn't a fool. Lol

My question is how long do they keep up the charade of being "closed enrollment?" If their official twitter is already advertising the portal, how long until a group of parents who live on the north side of town where it's CP address, Merrillville school district get together and lawyer up? For years the company line has been "I know we have a substantially better school district and your kid wants to go to school with his neighborhood friends, but unfortunately you live on the wrong side of 101st Ave so best of luck at Merrillville!" If those kids are still being turned away starting next school year, IMHO think CPHS might encounter some serious blowback.

I guess we are about to find out, right? lol

Transfer rule seems more geared for private schools then public schools unless the public school is open enrollment.
