CLOSED SCHOOLS

Recommended Posts

As others have mentioned, the first ones I thought of was the Goodlettsville Trojans (blue and gold) and the Madison Rams (orange and white). Still remember going to some of their games, in fact found a 1970 and 1972 Trojans yearbooks at a yardsale, and I know that Greenbrier is now home to a few old Goodlettsville alumni.

So you old Trojans moved further out into the country! :lol:

They were good Schools. When I graduated in 1979.

Madison & Goodletsville Highs had the highest Academic scores in Davidson Co.

A few in my class are living in the Hendersonville area.

3 schools were closed in Metro Nashville to form Hunters Lane.All three schools had good football programs.They were Goodlettsville Trojans,Madison Rams and The Dupont Bulldogs

Actually, most of the DuPont zone (Hermitage) relocated to McGavock. Only the village and rayon city are zoned to HuntersLane.

 

I remember some great games against Dupont! I know of all these schools except Haynes? Where was that at?

Haynes is located on Trinity Lane in somewhat North Nashville. It was open as a high school before desegregation. It is a middle school now although called Gra-Mar

I remember Tony and Dennis. Yes, actually I still have contact with Toby/Joey's (Resha) family. One of their sisters lives in Greenbrier. Not sure which Thomas you are talking about tho.

There is more than one Tony but they are all related. My Mother was a Resha. My Sister in law married Kevin Thomas class of 76.

My sister went to School at St Joe with the Resha clan from Goodletsville.

    • Why would the tax payers be responsible for paying for only a coach? In recent years with all the theft from various programs in schools from different programs with booster clubs (not just sports) the State of TN has made alot of rules surrounding booster clubs and how they handle money.  I have two documents to review, 1 is 40 pages from the state comptroller and the other is 37 pages from my district, so I can consider starting a booster club for my middle school program. It has been too much trouble in the past for the other coaches.  There is no way there needs to be an adult in the school building for 7 hours a day with no responsibilities except coaching. 
    • The only thing that was said at half time of the 45-0 game was Coach Story, he said: "I know y'all have been out there a lot, but kick-off team, y'all need to get down there faster!" Then he and the other coaches proceeded to go into the coaches office and we all went nuts!  It was the only time I can ever remember coaches not saying anything at half time. Definitely a great memory!!!
    • Boyd could actually be a grade below what he is now, but his parents didn't see the need to "redshirt" him like the other city school down the road would have pushed for....
