Lot of talk that TW may be on the chopping block. Some chatter in Lee about trimming $1 million from the school budget by shuttering TW and St. Charles' elementary school.
If this happens, how does that impact Lee? TW has around 300 kids and Lee is close to 800, even if you figure some of the TW kids would cross the state line, this would put Lee back in Class 3. The Generals football program has been on the upswing lately, Lee's track programs have been among the best in Region 2D, golf has won a state title and been a contender in recent times and softball appeared in the state tournament this year. It would also leave the M7 in the position of having two of its seven schools playing Class 3. This could lead to some seeding nightmares, not that they don't have enough already.
As for 1D, nothing would change other than schools in the Cumberland would need to find another opponent out of league.
