Again the principal of the high school seems to lack class, and doesnt earn up to his statements or his words. Last school year he has accepted and signed documents to introduce soccer into the schools. Now this year he has stated that he did not sign or include soccer. This principal needs to realize the caveman days are over and accept the fact that soccer is a growing sport and that many participants enjoy the sport along with the parents. Maybe its time he retires and lets a real man do the job and is able to keep his word.

Honestly you shouldn't expect them to be great until the program is running for awhile...Kids around here have never played soccer before so therefore they will have to build a team for the future...just like any sport...Who is A. Crabtree??? Is he a teacher???

I guess the world will always label each of us winners, loosers, ugly betty's,beauty queens,Einsteins and dumbasses. It doesnt matter what you truly are, peolpe are gonna put their worst on you quicker than you can blink your good eye.I dont understand the meaning of true identity because in a sense do any of us have that?I mean people accuse and others believe.So what is really the point in explaining anything to anyone?I think this county is more into hurting people than helping people.why?because it is todays gossip and tomorrows laugh.it is a trult sad thing.The worst I have seen in a long time.

Alfred Crabtree is NOT a teacher. he is the guy who through some strange way got the $100,000 donated to the band through his own tax free soccer program. If Hudson had of gone through and followed up with the band parents a few years ago trying to get the Band Boosters a tax free program it would have gone straight to the band.

I think Hudson had worked on that...My understanding is to be a coach you must be a teacher...If not could we not just pull anyone off the street to coach??? So did the money not go to the band??? I wanna coach too do you think i could get a job there???Not sure A Crabtree is just wanting to run the show and try to be something he is not.. good for him for gettin the donation for the band, but don't cut Hudson he has worked hard to get the band where they are without much help...its great that Crabtree has a rich friend to donate, but if he wants to coach he should just get a job teaching..Maybe the school has good reason for not wanting him to coach...maybe he is just not all that

Goofy all extracurricular activites are held after school, so it is not interfering with the educational process. We are sending our kids to school to learn, but exercise is also important. The jobs are going to Mexico because they have cheap labor and are not a bunch of lazy fat asses who expect the world to give them a break they work for it...Also you might blame that on your Government officials, that have almost lead us into a depression...So don't be ignorant sports activites take place after school, including practice...

Meme,
I was not cutting Hudson, although with all the years my kids have been in the band program, i could tell you some stories. That said, A C was introduced to the person with the money, he offered to let them donate through his soccer program so he could also get some things. Due to the fact that the "cash flow" was not through Nipper and the other cronies, major problems errupted.Ex, the band lost the band concession stand usage(which was built for their use) and a fight erupted with Hudson and Nipper. Bottom line, the kids suffered, and will continue to suffer because of it. The band teacher that came to the middle school(which you need to feed the high school band) will now leave due to the money going away. The family donating the money would love to continue, but like the existing trust,(which if you can get any truth of) they will not turn over control of a trust to locals, because the lies will start and the money intended for band use, will go to the cash flow of Nipper. It goes beyond Nipper, Colvard, and others, but the bottom line is, until the ones in charge are jailed (which we do not have) and the power strugles stop, our kids will come out of high school uneducated and unprepared for the college or working world. It is a shame too, we are losing every year excellent teachers because of the power strugles. Add to that a female teacher and her "antics" with some students, our school system has a lot of problems our board is either ignoring or to stupid to do anything about. by the way, you calling me Goofy? I havent heard that one in 30 years.

If you will check you will see that the goofy was about a different comment that wasn't even made by you, but whatever sounds like you are cutting Hudson to me and trying to glorify AC or you related to him or something...So what has happened in the band that is sooo bad all I have seen is improvement...

Glorify Alfred? I dont like the man, or his ways of getting things done. He does have some good ideas, but hey need to be done right, and not for his own benefit(just like the local power houses).As for cutting Hudson, he cuts himself.There have been kids transfer in here from other places that have had a lot more music training from the schools they come from than he has ever taught, and that was from Hudson himself. He has stated many times the band kids he has ( with a few exceptions) are the left overs that Oreto has no idea what to do with so they are stuck in band. Even Oreto admitted to that. It is very difficult to teach and have a good band when some of the kids there do not want to be there and also have had no training from middle school. That puts Hudson teaching basic instead of expanding on the basic. Cutting him? The school board and leadership is not helping Hudson nor the students.Really want to see improvement? Then have a middle school band teacher send students that know their instrument, can read music, and are willing to work to really make a band, then you will see a high school band teacher expand on that training and you will really see improvement. Remember, Hudson started in middle school, then moved with those students to the high school. The very last of the ones he started with graduate this May. Then it is start all over. That is a system failure, not a teacher failure. From the School super, school baord, and your principals, it shows their lack of concern, and lack of teaching. A total failure. Fix this, then you will really see some improvements.

I agree, Mr. Hudson has worked hard to improve the band and his is correct about them giving him the students that are slow or like you say that they just don't know what else to do with them..I think they did hire a Middle School Band teacher..Does anyone know anything about him???

First let me point out Soccer got a bus for 1 game this year the rest of the games parents had to make sure the team made it to games. How many times did football go without a bus? or basketball? or any other sport in BCHS? You guys want to talk about our soccer team? I ask you, how many of you came to support our team? I can tell you nil to none you guys sure show up for your football nights but totally ignore soccer so keep your opinion to yourself until you put time and effort into soccer and the students playing! You know why some of you don't like soccer, it is quite simple your "name" means nothing it isn't who you are its how you play. Mr.Nipper tried to get rid of it and may I point out failed. As for band until last year the band played with broken instruments my son had to play with an instrument that was missing parts but no sweat off you guys your football team had their jerseys,bus,and field maintained. How much of the budget went to band in the last 3 years? None they had to raise money and luckily Alfred found someone who cared and knew how instrumental band was(no pun intended)and put new instruments into the bands hands which Nipper didn't like. Nipper and the board has tried to get rid of band. So why don't you guys demand equality for our students? I know it means taking a stand and maybe losing your good "name" but when do you plan on drawing a line? When it is too late? You are all talk and no action!

You don't like Alfred? May I ask is it because he doesn't take crap like your Nipper? He isn't bought by people "names" Or maybe because he wasn't born here? yea like you guys are the first to be close minded Imbeciles. lol you guys are pathetic with your better than thou routine. You people are incredible they way you justify bull crap because it is better than having to take a close look at yourselves and admitted your errors. So keep talking the bull and maybe one day your town will become extinct due to your narrow minded views. Let me say it always helps to belittle the students doesn't it? Your postings are incomprehensible and unbelievable. More plainly spoken, Your concepts lacks justification in logical, realistic thought.
