[Walter White]

Hard to understand why a student athlete would want to leave a school that is ranked in the top 10 in district state rankings overall in school, district and state.  Being ranked in the top 10 in subject content in writing, math, science, reading and social studies.  In addition Pikeville High is ranked 7th in the state for ACT scores. As of 2023 Pikeville is ranked 6th in academics. Don't think Belfry is ranked anywhere near(168 overall) where Pikeville is ranked in these categories. Pikeville Independant has excellent athletic facilities and tremendous community support. Pikeville has won eight class 1-a state football championships. Now, having said all this, there may be certain circumstances unknown to us that would give reason as to why the young man and his family came to this decision.  Good luck to him in future success at Belfry High School.

Ah yes, because no one that has graduated from Belfry has ever amounted to anything… 
Did you forget Belfry has 8 state championships as well? As well as great facilities and community support? What about the fact that Belfry has the state of Kentucky’s all time winningest coach, and the 5th active in the entire country? Leave the decision to the family, I’m sure you pull zero weight in that area.
