I quoted Central Arkansas from your post


And it has as of late. The Arkansas football program has gotten much better quality out of south Arkansas than Little Rock, or Central Arkansas lately.

The school systems are so screwed up in Little Rock. I guess, this is what the problem is.

John Walker screwed them up by keeping the 'desgregation' (i.e., no more 'community based' schools) lawsuits going as long as he could to pad his nest. Forced busing drove those affluent enough to move to move out of the public schools and county district.

No way of setting up 'feeder programs' for your high schools when you don't know where the kids will be going to school. You can't install your system prior to getting them in high school, and you're not even sure to keep most of the kids for three years.

I thought Scooter Register going to Central would be a litmus test to see if it was possible to restore the LR public schools to prominence. Largely, the answer is no, he hasn't been able to.
