It appears that there is a revolt under way in the Georgia High School Association. Administrators and coaches representing 40 schools met in Macon to continue their trek toward a split from GHSA. Sighting the competitive imbalance between public and private high schools as the reason for the revolt, the 83 school officials continued with their plans to form the Georgia Public Schools Association. Although most of the dignitaries present represented the smallest classification in GHSA. However, even though Class A was heavily represented, that in no ways means that other school in other classifications are not interested. States such as Florida, South Carolina, and Tennessee have dealt with the issue, but it is apparent that the GHSA has taken a rather cavalier attitude. The GPSA in their meeting distributed ballots to help the group decide what to do next. The choices on the ballot were: Commit to pullling out of GHSA and join GPSA, stay in GHSA, or undecided. Stay tuned for further developments. (parts of this story was gathered from the Atlanta Journal Constitution)
