Northwest ISD News

The Messenger always prints Northwest ISD news that I refuse to read because I don't consider the school to be part of the "old Wise County." But, alas, times change.

Northwest ISD announced today the creation of a new high school that will be located in the very high tone town of Trophy Club. (I must admit that my very first home I ever owned was in Trophy Club, but it was in "the poor section" to the west so I'm not sure it counted.)

Back to the high school. It will cost $96 million and will include, get this, an indoor football practice facility. Which, I guess, means that Trophy Club High School will have its own football team. And, I guess, it will need its own mascot. It will certainly have to have some type of Republican flavor considering the demographics. The Trophy Club Desert Storm? The Trophy Club Trickle Downs? The Trophy Club Shock and Awes? The Trophy Club Capital Gains?

I would say that a bunch of white boys will get killed in football but Highland Park and Southlake have proven that ain't necessarily so.
