What i found remarkably tone deaf is that whoever it was took the time to respond multiple times. Just tell me the damn rule dumb arse lol.
"It’s not that complicated - but I am curious as to why 3 schools are involved."
It was 2 private schools and public. 1 private was trying to help, the other private & the public were contradicting each other.

What is the situation, post it here and we can see if TD can provide the correct answer.

We got it resolved. It was a few years back but it had to do with freshman eligibility, feeder school & zone bs. My daughter wasn't anything special but i was trying to make sure she would be eligible as a freshman.

Let me make it more clear....
Jose and Lisa live in the public school zone for Mandeville High. Jose decides to go play baseball at some school in NOLA with no penalty. Lisa does NOT play sports but is very low academically, so can Mandeville deny Lisa entrance to their school because she would hurt their SPS score and it NOT effect their funding?
Only seems fair, right?

The LHSAA is so dumb. We were getting conflicting information from 3 different high school AD's about eligibility. I sent an email to LHSAA asking for clarification. I didn't mention the schools but did spell out what we were told & the confusion. The response I got - clearly written by an actual person - was to ask the schools for guidance. I went back and forth with them but bottom line: they refused to tell me what their own damn rules were. Completely useless.
The LHSAA only deals with school administration, not with parents.
It's a long-standing policy... and a good one.

That's up to the St. Tammany School District. It has nothing to do with the LHSAA.
There seems to be a huge disconnect with some posters on what the LHSAA is and what they govern.

Then they should have mentioned it in the 3 or 4 responses. The very least could have been "We don't talk to parents, refer to rule "whatever" and please discuss with the school."

Your idea is dumb. So just because a school is select, they shouldn’t be able to point out that a non-select school is playing with kids that shoudn’t be there? Sounds like that school needs to be select too.
Ok I’ll concede that public free schools shouldn’t exactly throw stones about financial aid issues

Quite honestly that was the schools job to tell you they don't talk to parents. Also their job to properly inform you.

no kid wants to waste their HS playing days sitting on the bench at a bigger school when they could be starting at a smaller school
From my experience this is exactly what most kids do. If they are a good enough athlete then they will typically play another position.
Others when cut or don't become starters wash out of the program but find other opportunities in other sports and or clubs.
From my experience, albeit a small data set, very few kids leave the school because they can't compete. Typically, they know this and go to a different school before entering High School.

I don’t care about the effects of this rule in particular. In general, I want everyone to STOP frickING WITH EVERYTHING.
Leave us alone.

no, its the public school she is zoned for. how would that be fair?
now if she wanted to go to a different school out of zone, they could deny here or let her in.

Hit the nail on the head - in a district like Lafayette Parish where it's open enrollment that's fine it will be the wild west. Acadiana and Carencro can flip flop all day long. In a district like Livingston Parish or Ascension where you have to go to the school you are zoned for the LHSAA can do whatever they want it won't have a kid living in Albany just head to Live Oak to play and not move or a kid at St. Amant not moving and going to Dutchtown to play and not moving into that district. (I'm aware that there are exceptions to the rule but I'm talking about the norm)
The individual school district rules will play a huge part in what a school can do as far as letting people in out of district for these transfers.

well, mandeville high is losing an in district kid who could help them athletically so why can't they deny a different in district kid who will hurt them academically?

They aren't "losing" anyone. The new rule only affects kids enrolling in LHSAA schools for the first time.
And whether Mandeville denies entry to kids based on academics has nothing to do with the LHSAA or the other 410 schools that are members of the LHSAA. You keep arguing nonsense.

dude for the 10th time....wtf does LHSAA rule for freshman eligibility have to do with the school accepting a kid or academics?
you cant deny a kid that lives in zone. If you dont like that, take it up with your local congressman. but it has nothing to do with LHSAA or this rule
