You can set your watch to it. At least once every ten years a battle between public vs. private schools breaks out across the state of Kentucky. The latest iteration of controversy pits Jefferson County Public Schools (JCPS) superintendent Marty Pollio against Louisville St. X High School.
Recruiting Violations Alleged
Tuesday evening Pollio met with JCPS athletic directors and principals to discuss recruiting concerns. Eight eighth grade students that attended the new W.E.B. DuBois Academy opted to attend St. X, rather than stay with school through their high school years. All eight are talented football players.
