Here is what I've heard about Shelby. No inside knowledge, just conversations. It's a case of the haves and the have nots. If you are a scholar taking advance classes, you are basically getting a private school education because of the small class sizes. Morehead scholars being a prime example. For some of the kids its just about doing the minimum to stay eligible for sports then after graduation they are right back on the sidelines already talking about the glory days. I feel like we do a disservice to kids by having such low standards to stay eligible. Kids will do what's expected so what if the minimum for athletics was the same minimum to get into a community college. Would be better for everyone.
