I can check with my son in law to see if he has a increase in what he pays in school taxes. Where is this bank located at where I can borrow money I don’t have to pay back?? The whole “your taxes won’t increase is a sleight of hand trick. I liken it to go buying a brand new truck. 600/month for 5 years or whatever. After 2 years you refinance it. Keep on refinancing and pushing off the pay-off date. In 10-12 years you are going to still owe money on that old truck, but need a new one. That’s what’s going to happen to GP in a few years.

Call it a student loan and send the pay off notice to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

This pretty much describes 37/coyote and the GP Super. www.youtube.com/shorts/78OAglKm02I?t=11&feature=share

You are passing judgment and you did not make the open house tour. The kids were the real judge and they were enthusiastic. They could not wait to get in the fire truck seat or the school bus seat or the track Hoe. There was one little curly head kid that was all over the place. His dad said I can't keep up with him. The teacher of each classroom was there to answer questions. You have school choice for your Pre K child . You cand send them to the school at the First Baptist church or the Child development school. Marci how can you describe me when you have never met me? Marci how many kids do you have going to school at GP?

LOL I understood your post alright. You are trashing 37/coyote and the GP Super. Yes I think DR. Michelle Cavazos is superfine. I don't think GP has had a Super with her background. She has taught school at every level. She has been a principal at every level. She has courage.

Do you remember the Bond vote that failed when Coach George Harris was coaching. Then the Bond Vote passed when Coach Matt Anastacio was coaching. They replaced the old Iron building field house and made improvements to the stadium. GP and the city of Portland has built the finest athletic facility's in this area. Did you see the movie "Field of Dreams". Build it and they will come.

Will your fine Superintendent have the courage to change Admirals after this season if the team underperforms? Jimmy the Geek, there will be no reason for the Supt to even consider replacing Davis. We have stated numerous times that the current freshmen and JV teams are the most talented groups to go through GP in years. I fully expect the offense to be very good and the defense will good. We’ve got two more coaches coming in to replace coaches who took HC jobs recently. So you are saying that GP damn sure should win the region at least once the next 3 years then with that kind of talent, right?

They voted for it in the Bond . They had it in writing before they voted on it. It did not increase gpjohn’s taxes. Does GPJohn think the indoor practice field cost to much. My Lille 4 year old great grandson toured it open house day and loved it and did not want to leave. He will attend it next year and his little brother who is a couple of months old will follow him. Too late for their big sister as she will be in 9th grade next year. She hit 4 home runs the other day in two games and one went over the fence.God willing, I will see the results to compare with the two that went through the Child development school and those that did not. I have two great grandsons coming up through Middle school. There are a few more that think I am their grandpaw. I treat all kids like they are my own. “Some people can’t see the forest for the trees” “Some people have tunnel vision”. If you’re going to improve education at GP, you can’t keep doing the same thing DR. Paul Clore did. Once adequate facilities are had spending more does nothing toward improving education. That's well proven. Absolute truth right here!! NO high school in TX needs an indoor practice facility for football. NONE It is a complete waste of tax payer $$$

Coach George Harris name keeps cropping up and let me help you understand something. It is not unusual for a boss or owner of a company to hire employees in their own image. Coach George Harris did not play football in HS. He ran track over at Texas A&I. He hired a lot of coaches that graduated over at Corpus Christi University who were Kinesiology majors. No they did not play football. He hired other coaches who did not play college ball such as Coach Jay Seibert. In fact it would be hard to find a coach on Coach George Harris staff that did play college ball. Coach Vince Lombardi did not play college ball. He was considered a great coach even though he had some other issues that you would not want in your coach. Coach Robert Montgomery Knight had the same issues. I saw him slap a player up beside the head in a game one time. "Never touch a player in anger " Coach Gordon Wood. Coach Gordon Wood had a rule on touching a player in anger and you would be fired. You may not get to gain experience that you would get playing under a Coach Like Lou Holtz but I think it would help to play college ball. My father was a great Boxing coach and he did not make it passed the 9th grade. Only because you are the one who is constantly hating on him and bringing him up! SMDH

We didn't have freaking air conditioning until we got to high school yet we somehow managed without belly aching and learned. We didn't have air conditioned indoor practice facilities and even our weight room didn't have AC in it nor did our gyms! The tax payer money being wasted on these overbuilt school facilities is sickening and MOST of the tax payers have no clue, or simply don't care enough to raise hell about it.

You did not have one because your school could not afford it. GPISD can afford it and it is what the voters wanted. It is also used for Band practice.
