What are the enrollments of the schools in that area? Are there any racial balancing issues in play? What about ESL? Also, one of the two areas you are talking about is still geographically contiguous with the rest of that attendance zone...

ETA: the area immediately west of the island is also a mobile home park, IIRC.

Has the DRC picked up on this?  

DRC ran a story about it in December. It did not state the obvious as to what was going on, but I guess a paper can't get too far to one side.

Not sure regarding enrollments but I do know Stephens does not have ESL or a dual language program like Pecan Creek currently does. The small green section on the left side you are asking about encompasses an apartment complex if I remember correctly. How convenient, right?

No, I mean directly adjacent to the island. On your graphic, Bloom and Canary make up two of the streets. I'm pretty sure those are part of a trailer park.

You are right. That is part of the mobile home park. The rezoned section on the island is an apartment complex. Hmmm......

I guess I should check and recheck before blowing up about an issue. I still don't like what they've done....

      Caponi fired

      Same here. I am tired of trying to convince my group to re-enlist their time and money to football at UNT. On the other hand I have no issues getting excited for basketball. We have a basketball program that is deserving of our support!

      Odus Mitchell - What Exactly are Too High Standards at UNT?

      We have only had 4 coaches [I missed Jack Sisco] since 1913 out of a total of 18 who exited North Texas with winning records, Hayden Fry being the last in 1978. Goals and objectives must be realistic and obtainable with a little pie in the sky. Quite honestly I have no idea what we our standard should be, only what it has become . However, expect more are you will get less ,which seems to be the norm for our football program.

      Caponi fired

      I’ll say this as well - There are people in my group of 20+ season ticket holders that have held them since 2003 questioning if they’ll renew next year because it’s not fun anymore. It feels hopeless after 20+ years. They’re just saying, I’ll keep supporting basketball because at least we have a real program and coaching staff that we can all believe in through wins and losses. No one believes in the football coaching staff - except Patrick Cobbs - who we might as well elevate to HC. He’s the only one that actually produces and legitimately gives a shit about UNT. This program’s situation is dire whether the AD realizes it or not.

      I certainly am not making excuses for the termination of Caponi and agree that it was overdue. However I am surprised that our AD and not HC was the one who reportedly pulled the trigger. I owned a medical device sales agency for 30 years and can testify that no one like firing an employee. In fact those who do , unless its a really egregious act, usually wait longer than the should because the real mistake was made by you in hiring them in the first place. Having said that I have never terminated an employ that didn't expect it and in most cases were relieved that the ax finally dropped.
