Kids transferring because of playing time or not playing certain positions is not the problem. In fact, I don’t know of anyone doing that.

You have a lot more families living in Floyd County that have never sent their kids to a Floyd Co school and that’s because those families either believe the neighboring districts are a better option or they work there and it’s just easier to send their kids near where they work. That falls on the Floyd County board of education. I mean there was a article that came out last year or the year before stating that the county was losing over $1 million in tax money because over 400 kids that lived in Floyd County where going to school in neighboring counties. Folks that falls back on your school board not making the necessary progress it should have years ago.

Right now Prestonsburg Elementary can’t keep teachers because of politics. Parents aren’t going to keep sending their kids to a school that keeps losing some of its best teachers.
