Pulp Fiction Wrote:I didn't say anything to downgrade Paintsville's academic standards on any level. Like I said in my original post, a 100% college acceptance rate doesn't equal 100% college attendance or a 100% college graduation rate. I know several teachers and administrators in the Paintsville School System, Chuck McClure was my basketball & football coach when he was at Meade Memorial back in the 90's, I go to church with Paintsville's A.D..... I'm not saying they aren't some of the best in their field. All of the yearly testing numbers show Paintsville is always one of the best in the tested subject matter.

I graduated from BSCTC with an Associate in Applied Science, so I'm not trying to 'belittle' anybody from attending any type of institution of high learning. I paid (not mom & dad or scholarship money) for every single penny of my classes at BSCTC. That expensive piece of paper is proudly displayed in my house and landed me a great career.



A neutral party that didn't know who I was or what team I support, would read that original post and have to agree with what I said.
A small graduating class each year should have a very percentage rate of students getting accepted to college. I realize that you can't make somebody attend college, high schools are responsible for getting their students prepared for life after graduation, no matter what path they take. If Paintsville could say their class of 2016 had a 100% college attendance rate and those students are still enrolled or their class of 2014 had a 100% graduating rate this coming Spring or Winter semesters, or those who haven't graduated are still in school, then yes, Paintsville by far would be the best non-private high school in the United States.


The ultimate greaser can't stand it then tries to backpedal, keep up the great work :hilarious:
