Congrats to Lincoln Way East on winning the State Title!!! Geeze I remember that was only a 2 year(or was it 1?) school where people from Reavis would end up after getting lost going to Rich Central or Lincoln Way.And the cherry on top is that kids who played football at Lincoln Way North got their state title!!!

You don't have a extra North Football program you can sell me do you?

 

[Bwm57]

Okay, so LWE picked up about 900 students in the rezoning. How many players on last nights varsity were from LWN?

They took off their old 8 18 site which what I was looking for to check the names of the Frosh and Sophs who played at North that play at East now.

You must remember that they lost as many players as they gained. The kids from Mokena were sent to Central.

But the overall student enrollment went from about 1,900 to 2,916. That's a 50% increase. So, they got a lot more than they lost

True, but they lost football players (starters). The post makes it seem like they only gained students, that no players were lost.

They gained about 1,750 from LWN and lost about 900 from Mokena that now go to LWC.
11 starters were from LWE, 11 were from the former LWN area.

And to clarify the thread title it should read Lincoln-Way North/East regarding the student population. See there Bwm57...facts do matter and I can acknowledge the same. Now, how many coaches came over from North on the football side?

 

[Bwm57]

Three on varsity.

Enrollment for LWE on IHSA Web site
2013 2198
2014 2154
2015 2153
2016 2891

Net Increase of 738 students or 25%

Increase = New Number - Original Number (2891-2153)=738

% increase = Increase ÷ Original Number × 100. (738 / 2891)*100 = 25%

 

[Thedoctor50]

Your math is wrong the % increase is new/old so 34%

I knew someone would challenge it which is why I put the formula down.

Look it up math major...Here is another way to do it - same result.

You have the right equation, just inserted the new number(2891) when you wanted original number(2153)

should be 738/2153

25 or 34. Pretty significant increase. Pretty unsettling for the older kids. Thanks Lawrence Wylie.

The way I always figure it is if I had 2153 bucks in the stock and bond markets and I grew it to 2891 during the year ( 738 dollar increase). I managed to get a 34 percent return on my orginal invested capital/Money. But of course kids are not dollars!!

Congrats to the 2017 LWE Griffins. They ran the table just like the 2005 team. The East fans don’t care if the team was made up of East & North kids.
Go East Go Blue! State 8A Champions again. Great job guys.

I was just saying how happy I was for the North kids seeing their school closed
