I know some of the more established schools have foundations for students who are good academically or from lower SES situations but it seems like a lot of MHSAA athletes are finding themselves at MAIS schools the last few years for reasons I can't fathom, let alone how the family is paying for it or getting them transportation. I know down here on the coast, Stanislaus has families that will cover the cost of tuition for a player moving in at times. There are many variables to getting a player to come to a private school. It is honestly not difficult at all for an athlete to move to a private school. Especially if they are an incredible talent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for chiming in coast. It all sounds like about what I thought. They just making it all up as they go along. If a student who played in the band started at a private school in the association would there be criteria they hand to meet before they could participate ? You can’t do to one and not do to the other. That’s federal territory there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hasbeen67 Posted August 23, 2024 Share Posted August 23, 2024 This was going on some 40 years ago when I was in high school. I'm sure it's just as bad or worse these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebel Bert Posted August 24, 2024 Share Posted August 24, 2024 You have to consider the opportunity for public school teachers to move to private schools thus drawing double retirement. It happens. I am sure some those teachers have sons who are football players. Etc, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
