  1. The rule says you can transfer if out of state and pay out of state tuition prior to entering 9th grade. No penalty. Hope that clears your question.
  2. Old Montcalm gym was smallest I ever saw. It was a cracker box.
  3. They were working yesterday. Didn't go by there today so if there was a stoppage it was since yesterday after lunch.
  4. I wouldn't imagine that is the problem. They built the new fieldhouse and new gyms a decade ago within 70 yards of the sinkhole that appeared in 1990.
  5. I've been told by multiple folks in the know the money will be there to finish the stadium.
  6. For 2024......it's a field with lights a soccer field and a track. Beyond that.......it's going to end up a stadium. It's just a matter of when. They arent spending a million dollars for a practice field. Most likely 25 or 26 Graham will be playing most games on campus.
  7. Bids for all 3 jobs went out last July I believe. And was approved in either August or Sept. Can't remember which it was. But was told all 3 will be complete by August.
  8. Correct. Richlands is only turf replacement though I was told.
  9. And design wasn't started in the fall. The contracts were awarded to the construction company in the fall with work to begin after Jan 1st.
  10. All I can tell you is drive by Graham high school. Work began 1st week of January. It will be complete by summer.
  11. You are correct. They've had the money for 2 years for the Graham project. The reason it had not started before now was the state and the EPA. Work in Bluefield has begun. Work in Tazewell and Richlands was approved by school board in the fall. Contracts are approved and should start soon.
  12. They are having to cut trees and work on the drainage pond as well. Tazewell I think involves a retaining wall. Either way shouldn't be long.
  13. Lots more work to do at Graham. Tazewell shouldn't take nearly as long,
  14. You might think it's rubbish, but it's not. Bluefield WV is not fiscally responsible which is why the rent keeps raising. When the turf was put down in 2007 the city of Bluefield was charging 35k a year in rent. That money from tazewell and mercer county school boards were supposed to be put in an account that was 70k yearly for turf replacement. I was told that personally by the director of parks and rec. When it came time to replace the turf the city had spent the money and had to get the money from the schott foundation. Then they raised the rent more. Not to mention they take 20% of concessions from the band. They arent going to miss Graham. They have BU and BSU now. You can doubt it if you wish but it's going to happen.
  15. Pretty sure thats the plan.
