There are NO ISSUES. Shad was paid $2,000 for field maintenance in 2015. Two assistants were paid $2,000 to coach from Booster club funds. No gas cards...no $90,000 worth of funds going anywhere. Our bookkeeper is as tight as it gets. I promise. I would love to see the same audit performed at every school in this state and see some headlines. I would say our 5 errors pale in comparison. I bet no other coach in the state got paid to take care of his field (wait....most all other schools have been handed a turf field so there actually may not be any other grass fields in the state besides ours and Heritage) Is beating our brains in on the field not enough for some (not all) of you posters on here?

 

I am proud of our school. Many of you think we are a bunch of clowns. I would beg to differ. Our male sports teams have been, for the most part, bad since 2007. But there is more to a school than sports. As a matter of fact, I have grown to realize that there is a lot more to school than sports. Sports for most students ends at age 18. Then the real world hits. I would take our post secondary students and match them against any other schools. We produce a lot of quality college students and quality people once they graduate.

well here you are again... so you say that you just did it for money but then you throw out the envious frustration about turf, so im gonna have to revise my earlier question , if you do it for money and like it then that is whorish .? Thou shalt not covet. As far as sports go , I have always known that that academics come 1st and have held my kids to that standard. Edited by GREYRIDERx

Sorry.  You obviously do not like me. I believe Maryville is a great school.  So is Alcoa.  So is Heritage. So is WBHS.  I just get tired of all the WBHS bashing, and I am not sure why it is necessary.  

 

I obviously do not belong on this site because too many of these posts simply try to get people mad. And I bit.  I truly, however, think that all schools are good, and those that are teaching at all of them are grossly underpaid for what they do for society.  I will end it at that.  Once again sorry if I have come across rude.  

 

I do like the dance though...I actually saw my mother (who passed away last year) in the stands during this video.  Good stuff.

I am stunned at the amount of negativity towards WB on these boards. Did WB shoot your dog or something? Geez.

Amen

We haven't won more than 3 football games since 2007.  You are supposed to be liked when your getting beat every Friday night.  I thought we only disliked teams that won all the time.  No one says...."Man I hate the dang 49ers."

WB has a lot to be proud of and I think it's an excellent school with great administrators, teachers and students. 

 

Since people are so keen to post links, I'll give some "newspaper articles" for everyone to chew on:
