Of course it's just a rumor, but with the way Hayesville's season is going (and all his best skill players graduating) I don't see him there next year.. whether that's Murphy, Union County or somewhere else in the area.Is this really been confirmed or is this just a rumor?

lol ok... definitely not. But even if it were Hayesville has certainly had more than their fair share of Murphy transfers over the years (in various sports) as well: JayLee Earls, Trayvon Brown, Marcus Teems, CJ Crowder, Evan Hughes, Tyler Vaughn, etc. and that list is just the last 15 years.Done deal
Jv ,qd didn't transfer they live in tomotla community, they don't live in clay countyDone deal. Current Murphy JV QB transferred from Hayesville!

I also have a problem with kids picking schools with athletics in mind. It teaches that shortcuts are better than perseverance and that loyalty keeps you from your goals--basically the opposite of what sports should teach kids. As far as consolidation goes, you may know more than me, but I am hoping they basically keep the 3 current school districts but make them all one elementary/one middle/one high to cut down on some of the elementary overhead costs. I will say that, if Cherokee County goes to one consolidated high school, I wouldn't be surprised to see a charter high school pop up.
I heard from someone in the know that they will be 2 new High Schools with new boundary lines to determine which School the students will attend
I'll believe it when I see it, not saying you didn't hear that Wildcat, just saying I don't see this coming to fruition, the blowback will be off the charts.I heard from someone in the know that they will be 2 new High Schools with new boundary lines to determine which School the students will attend
I'm against consolidation. I hate to say that but i'm looking at it totally as a Athletic point of view. I'm afraid that we are out numbered on this.Two high schools would be much worse for the county athletically than a single county school, at least a single county school consolidates all of the talent in the county (despite having to play in 2A). A two high school setup would be the death knell for competitive high school athletics in this county imo, both schools would be terrible in football and many other sports.
Two high schools probably makes the most sense from an educational and economic standpoint, but we all know community allegiance and athletics will play a large role in how people take this. For example, if this were to actually happen, my son (still a baby) will never attend Cherokee County Schools.

Your exactly right. They start getting into our local government and school board and you start seeing changes that we local mountain folks don't always agree with. It's sad but change is comingOne problem with living in a county with a lot of retirees and people who move in after their kids are grown is that it's easy for people with an interest in the schools to get outnumbered.
Unfortunately I see this happening in Trans CO. A lot of talk and speculation about combining Rosman and Brevard. I personally don't think this is good idea.Sounds like Transylvania co with all the retireee's
I didn't ask that question. I was thinking consolidation would mean just 1 High School but when I was told 2 I was a little thrown off. But our county is so long it makes sense to do two schools. At that point I voiced my opposition to consolidation all together. I'm a nobody so it's not like they cared for my opinion. LolAny word on the plan the architect presented to the school board?

Looks like there are 5 plans, but the two high school option would turn Andrews Middle and Ranger Middle into the two high schools with renovations. Next meeting on it is Oct.5 .
There is no "Murphy" in this scenario, Murphy's current student body will be theoretically split. I say theoretically because having the east high school in Andrews is the stupidest thing I've ever heard, nobody that currently goes to school at Murphy is going to drive up all the way up to Andrews besides maybe kids who live in Tomotla.Murphy might be 2A.
For Rosman's sake, I'm sure it does.Sounds like a good plan to me.
Nothing. I live in Peachtree and it would be just as close for my son to go to school in Hayesville as it would Ranger or Andrews.But my question is what are they going to offer at the eastern high school to convince people from Tomotla and Peachtree to send their kids there instead of the Early College
