What happened? Who won?

Was that the legislation signed in by Rick Scott back in 2016 that basically allows one student to transfer to the next school without any obstacles?

My friend's dad said "This is how devoted Alabama fans are to their team". I was like, what...

Ah I feel you on that.

Does Columbia have a swimming team?

Escambia vs Crestview. Baker vs Chipley would be a fun one to go to as well.

When the dust settles, the school board will probably put it on the 2018 general election ballot. (I'm not sure if they can do county referendums during general elections) Or wait til May of 2019 for a mail in ballot, so progress will be postponed for a while.

Well folks, the School District has pulled the proposed half cent sales tax referendum that was supposed to appear on ballots in the spring of 2018. There's lots of investigations with teachers and the district going on now, so I think it was the right choice.

Not sure how the panhandle will fair. Choctaw retained a bit of their talent from last year, so they'll remain competitive. Niceville as well should have a good season. Pensacola may be competitive again? I'd probably pick Choctaw for a 7A run.

What would tier 9 be?

Go home everyone.

That'd be neat to see, Gainesville getting ousted or Vanguard.

Columbia basketball going hard this year?

Yea, 6A and 1A I agree with. I'm on edge about Crestview though, that Gulf Breeze game was sloppy with penalties and defense.

Navarre 49 - Niceville 47 Crestview 38 - Gulf Breeze 35 Escambia 28 - Pine Forest 0 St Augustine 49 - Tate 14

I'd say both teams are around the same. The 16 team having a slight edge.

Crestview goes all the way and wins 6A.

People just not interested in showing up to Columbia games?

With a new Destin high that might get built? Yea, it'll draw some of the students away (referendum will have to be voted on to see if funds can be acquired). Niceville will continue to stay dominant, but to state is a long road.

Rivals always seem to ha, especially if Fort Walton can put 45 points up which is really shocking considering Niceville holds Fort Walton to 20 points or less every season. As for Choctaw, it's crazy. They were doing really well and had some awesome players the last couple of years with that run to state before Armwood stopped em. Now a days, dwindling enrollment/lack of talent must be hurting.

Maybe they're discouraged? I can only speculate.

Miami is gonna score it looks like.

Jeez. FSU can't get a break. Hopefully Patrick isn't injured he got up though.

Fort Walton beach high and Niceville

Starting a new thread because the old one is locked. Within a week of my original post, the school board confirmed there will be a referendum in the ballots to vote on a sales-tax increase. If it passes, a portion of the tax will go towards funding the new high school. May 2018 is when the spring ballots come out. And by 2019, if the referendum passes, then construction will be set to start on the Destin High school.
