That's interesting. My husband's side of the family is related to him. He was my FIL's uncle.

Too bad football doesn't carry the clout is used to.

Yeah....WF Band isn't what it was when I graduated HS in '98. In 97 it started to go downhill. Now they don't even get past Area in Marching Band or Region in Honor Band. Whit flight has definately happend in that area of Spring.

Please look at the post you are going to reference and make sure it isn't half a year old!! Tis has happened twice in this thread!

Considering that post was written in June (8 months ago!!), Katy is just suburban sprawl on a flat prairie. Just not my thing I guess.

Didn't Anna Nicole's husband own that property??

There is a museum in TW Mall.

Are you trying to say they are copying Katy? I wouldn't live in Katy if my life depended on it.

blacks will never predominate around conroe or TW. I know for a fact conroe has a bad rep for that kind of thing. There are very successful ones but they will never predominate.

Isn't there already a Randalls over there???

We don't currently live in The Woodlands (right next to) but we are in the same Boy Scout district. My son is a Cub Scouts and they are primarily done by school to keep the boys together. I know Awana is done by churches. We do meet a church though. They don't have anything to do with the running of the Boy Scouts.

Yeah I'm sure there are. There are probably some parents who are so busy they don't have time for their kids. I was just saying that the reasons the schools are rated so good isn't because of people not getting involved with their kid's education.

I am going to be a teacher. I can tell you that the majority of the reasons these schools are good is because of parental support. No teacher can do their job if the parents don't do their part. I don't know where you live but from what I've seen and heard from friends who are teachers in TW, your "stop and drop" remark is way off based with the schools here.
