Speaker 2 (02:39):
Coach your teamus wa well, George and Ivans. We follow
high school sports now and we report. You know, I'm
a Brewin. Just just understand.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
But I coached that.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
I understand I'm a Brewing.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
That's fair.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Everybody knows how bart were the bad bears, that's all.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
They called me the pig form. But that's okay. It
used to be at all the jokes, but it's okay.
But I remember Athleton. Rick Wilson, I mean probably be
for you were born coach played at University of Louisville.
He was the man left handed. I was a left hander.
Rick Wilson was the best left handed guard ever at Louisville.
Second player taken in the second round, back when there
(03:18):
was only twenty three teams to the Atlanta Hawks. I
mean he was a stud. He played here. He was unstoppable,
really really good player. That's my memory of Atherton High School.
His younger brother played here after that. They had some
decent teams basketball wise, but football wise. I had never
heard about them until you put them on the map
last year and it was like Athdens winning games. George,
(03:40):
what's going on at Athleton? And of course you know
we knocked you all. I'll just be an honest coaching man.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
That's fair. I supposed to me.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
We didn't understand. I mean, I mean we see that
every week exactly.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Nothing's changed.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
We have to go do it and show people. And
that's what we do. We show up. We're going and
keep proving them wrong. There you go, I mean there
is they say us across the board. You know, some
people just still sleeping on us. Which if that's okay,
we don't knock nobody for that. We keep showing up,
keep using butts.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
That's all taking names.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
So you got Butler today, Yes, sir, what's going on
with this game?
Speaker 3 (04:15):

Speaker 1 (04:15):

You told me since two thousand and fourteen. Yep, went
the Pleasure Ridge Park, Sir. Got you well, I've known
Larry Kenley del Aubrey, all the great things that have happened.
We have done a basketball show at Place Ridge Park

last year. Harry was on with me and Larry and
I go back. I'm sixty six, Larry and I go
back forty years. That's how long I've known Larry. We've
just been bumping the heads along the way. Great tradition.
But you played for a great coach, Chris Wolf. Sir,
what was your experience at PRP to prepare you for this.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
I mean it was nice. It was for you know,
learned a lot, seeing a lot.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
You know, I kind of knew then playing that coaching
was what I wanted to do, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
I sat back and watch the coaches. I watched how
they sent up practice.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
I watched how they you know, trained us and worked
us in practice plans and all that kind of stuff.
So I kind of always knew that it's the route
that I wanted to take. Excellent, So I'm thankful for
the coaches that I've had. Eric Wolf then seeing all
those type guys.

not being able to play football, your heartbroken. I just
walking in the doors. I remember every day, graduation day

Their life's in front of them, and we're going a

Yes? Sir?
Speaker 2 (12:26):
All right, See you've got the wrong winner. Oregon's gonna
beat the breaks off. But I agree with you. That's
the way to win the contest. It is sometimes changed
from everyone else. Everyone has taken organ So I'm taking
the under state.

way you win it.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
Everyone. I'm telling you.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
If I it's oh, I'll say to Alabama Oklahoma. Everybody
has done the same thing. If there's only like two
or three people that have taken Missouri or taken Texas,
Oklahoma and Texas, who.
Speaker 7 (13:27):
Do you like, Yeah, that's Oklahoma at defense.
Speaker 9 (13:30):
He's young manning up.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Yeah, you know, but a lot of things happened in Dallas.
Just remember it said neutral. They played this game in
Dallas every year.
Speaker 9 (13:41):
They say it's a neutral field.
Speaker 11 (13:43):
But it's in Dallas.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
I don't know it's in Texas.
Speaker 9 (13:46):
Austin is just an hour and a half up the road.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
But no, I agree with you totally. No, it's a
little more than that. It's doing a half up the road. Yeah,
it's doing half. It's a nice little ride from from
Austin the capitol to Dallas.

You know, it seems like he's prepared for life. Seem
like he's looking ahead of just being in school. And
what I love a lot about him, Jerry, is that
he's got his academics and de solidly that you know
that that's what I prepare is aw as a young
man prepared academically. So we know his family's got to

Speaker 2 (31:55):
Ron, We've got you down, appreciate your brother that it
was a pleasure, and leave ballot Nation alone. And so
everybody gangs up on me. So, Doc, you've got a
magnet program here. Let's talk about that a little bit.
What's going on that Atherton?
Speaker 1 (32:11):
Okay?
Speaker 13 (32:11):
So well, Atherton is the only international Baccalaureate Magnet program
in JCPS for one of just four in the entire
state of Kentucky.
Speaker 12 (32:19):
It is a worldwide academic program.
Speaker 13 (32:23):
It is known as the most rigorous high school diploma
that any student in the entire world can achieve. And
so we have that program here. We have I think
about thirty kids in line to be what they call
full IB diploma candidates.
Speaker 12 (32:40):
But we're an IB world school, so every single one.
Speaker 13 (32:43):
Of our kids takes a minimum of two IB courses
before they graduate. And so we're kind of that that
diamond in the rough, if you will. We're kind of
that unknown.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
So true we hear about Male High School, You're so right,
we are about manual.
Speaker 1 (32:59):
I did not know that about it.
Speaker 12 (33:00):
We're actually top ten in the state.
Speaker 13 (33:03):
We've been named to the US News and World Reports
Best High School's List for thirteen years in a row
and running.
Speaker 12 (33:09):
Congratulations, So we're kind of one of those if you know,
you know, and.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
You know, congratulation. I appreciate you're so right. What is secret?
Speaker 2 (33:17):
I did not know that, No, I did. I didn't
even know you were a magnet program.
Speaker 13 (33:21):
Yeah, we are a district wide magnet program, or one
of the few district wide magnet programs for that that
high academics, and so that's one of those things that
we pair with you. You heard Thearius a little bit
earlier talking about his his engineering dreams. So we actually
are also the only school that's a dual magnet in
an Academies of Louisville school. So we offer a full
(33:42):
engineering pathway, health sciences pathway, and media arts pathway. So
you're you're sitting here and you've got me on the media.
This is something that I do on the regular with
my kids. But kids like Darius, and you know, hundreds
of kids like him, are actually in a four year
engineering pathway and so they regularly go out to business
partners ups, Republic airways, things like that and meet mentors
(34:05):
and get hands on experience in college credit while they're here.
Speaker 5 (34:08):
Congratulations, I got a baby girl to graduate from ATHING,
So I already know about Afterton, you know, that's one
of the reason we did. And they also have one
of the smaller class as of almost any schools in
Jefson County. So I know a lot about the academics Afteritude.
And how long has your program been in the national program?
How did y'all get selected for that?
Speaker 13 (34:25):
We've been an international baccalaureate program since the early eighties,
so over forty years we're pushing up I think on
your fifty here in the next probably about forty five
years now we've been in IB.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
Well, it's fantastic, so fantastic, amazing.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
How long have you been here?
Speaker 12 (34:41):
This is my fifth year?
Speaker 3 (34:43):
Yeah, you know, doctor.
Speaker 5 (34:45):
I'd like to say if a lot of Jeffson County
families knew what you would guys really do in the
educational system, I think we would be more impressed than
every time we could talk about you.
Speaker 3 (34:53):
We talk about how much money you don't have.
Speaker 5 (34:55):
But with you guys accomplishing academically with our students and
putting them in a world class facilities and stuff like that,
I think it's so fantastic about what you're doing, and
I think you need to be recognized about the academics
that's going on in Jesson County as well.
Speaker 12 (35:08):
As I appreciate that.
Speaker 13 (35:09):
Yeah, I mean we do, and you know, I'm proud
of what we do at Atherton. But you know, these
stories are at every JCPS.
Speaker 3 (35:14):
Yes, I know, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 13 (35:15):
Yeah, So you know, well, I'm always gonna tellt with
thank you for that. There are great things going on
in every single TXPS high school every single day.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
You're all the negativity, That's what I'm saying there.
Speaker 13 (35:27):
You go, well, well, the great things don't sell stories, right,
so they don't sell commercially exactly, So.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
How many students do we have?
Speaker 2 (35:34):
It?
Speaker 1 (35:34):
After that? And we are.
Speaker 12 (35:36):
Busting at the seam.
Speaker 13 (35:37):
So here in the spring, we're going to open up
a twenty thousand square foot edition to kind of help
with our space. We're our capacity is about twelve hundred
and I have close to fifteen hundred and fifty kids
here right now, and so it's becoming a little bit
less of a secret and we're kind of busting at
(35:58):
the seam. So I'm really looking forward to adding twelve
new classrooms, twenty thousand square feet.
Speaker 2 (36:03):
We need so yeah, extended. You have a college basketball
floor here now. I walked in and saw that.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
It's beautiful.
Speaker 12 (36:10):
Yeah, we do well.
Speaker 13 (36:11):
You know, one of the things I believe is is
we're gonna be competitive academically, and we do that for
the kids. You know, I want our kids to have
every opportunity available to them when we leave. I meet
with every senior every year and I tell them that
as a parent, I want their Atherton diplomba to stand
for something.
Speaker 12 (36:28):
You know, there's six thousand other kids graduating in.
Speaker 13 (36:31):
Twenty twenty six this year, and I want our four
hundred kids to stand out. And so what's going to
be different. So we actually are number one of the
state and post secondary readiness and so like just yesterday
we had a college fair. We had everything from Ivy
League universities here represented regional local universities all the way
down to your trade schools and then straight into job
(36:52):
because we want kids to have those opportunities. But speaking
of that too, we're going to be competitive academically those kids.
Speaker 12 (36:58):
You know it, Athletics works right along with it.
Speaker 13 (37:01):
You know, you all know that if you were an
athlete that develops everything around you, and so we're trying
to give you know, world class facilities. So we have
we've expanded, We've got college dimensions. We actually are back
on the back fifty acres. We just opened up a
brand new softball complex. It's the only turf softball field
in Louisville plays at college dimensions as well. So we're
(37:26):
we're trying also to give the best of the best
opportunities to our student athletes.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
You all are listening to doctor Stephie, floor principal at
Atherton High School. We're sitting in the locker room. Their
football team is doing a fantastic job this season. Lost
one game. Great job only.
Speaker 13 (37:41):
Great job, Yeah, yes, doing a great job, you know, gosh,
and we were in it.
Speaker 1 (37:46):
We were in it the whole time.
Speaker 3 (37:47):
We've made a.
Speaker 12 (37:48):
Five point game and we had the dagon ball.
Speaker 13 (37:51):
So, you know, I think when you're putting yourself in
a position to be in those games and to win

Coach your teamus wa well, George and Ivans. We follow
high school sports now and we report. You know, I'm
a Brewin. Just just understand.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
But I coached that.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
I understand I'm a Brewing.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
That's fair.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Everybody knows how bart were the bad bears, that's all.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
They called me the pig form. But that's okay. It
used to be at all the jokes, but it's okay.
But I remember Athleton. Rick Wilson, I mean probably be
for you were born coach played at University of Louisville.
He was the man left handed. I was a left hander.
Rick Wilson was the best left handed guard ever at Louisville.
Second player taken in the second round, back when there
(03:18):
was only twenty three teams to the Atlanta Hawks. I
mean he was a stud. He played here. He was unstoppable,
really really good player. That's my memory of Atherton High School.
His younger brother played here after that. They had some
decent teams basketball wise, but football wise. I had never
heard about them until you put them on the map
last year and it was like Athdens winning games. George,
(03:40):
what's going on at Athleton? And of course you know
we knocked you all. I'll just be an honest coaching man.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
That's fair. I supposed to me.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
We didn't understand. I mean, I mean we see that
every week exactly.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Nothing's changed.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
We have to go do it and show people. And
that's what we do. We show up. We're going and
keep proving them wrong. There you go, I mean there
is they say us across the board. You know, some
people just still sleeping on us. Which if that's okay,
we don't knock nobody for that. We keep showing up,
keep using butts.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
That's all taking names.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
So you got Butler today, Yes, sir, what's going on
with this game?
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Easy?
Speaker 1 (04:15):

last year. Harry was on with me and Larry and
I go back. I'm sixty six, Larry and I go
back forty years. That's how long I've known Larry. We've
just been bumping the heads along the way. Great tradition.
But you played for a great coach, Chris Wolf. Sir,
what was your experience at PRP to prepare you for this.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
I mean it was nice. It was for you know,
learned a lot, seeing a lot.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
You know, I kind of knew then playing that coaching
was what I wanted to do, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
I sat back and watch the coaches. I watched how
they sent up practice.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
I watched how they you know, trained us and worked
us in practice plans and all that kind of stuff.
So I kind of always knew that it's the route
that I wanted to take. Excellent, So I'm thankful for
the coaches that I've had. Eric Wolf then seeing all
those type guys.

not being able to play football, your heartbroken. I just
walking in the doors. I remember every day, graduation day

like it. That's why it's so important that people like
yourself help with these young men. And I don't understand

Their life's in front of them, and we're going a
great show, great time. Now, I got William, William, we

Speaker 3 (12:25):
Yes? Sir?
Speaker 2 (12:26):
All right, See you've got the wrong winner. Oregon's gonna
beat the breaks off. But I agree with you. That's
the way to win the contest. It is sometimes changed
from everyone else. Everyone has taken organ So I'm taking
the under state.
Speaker 9 (12:42):
So uh, I don't believe they're gonna beat the breaks
off nobody.

Speaker 3 (13:07):
I'm going. I'm going with Missouri on that one.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
I don't know why more people haven't, because that's the
way you win it.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
Everyone. I'm telling you.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
If I it's oh, I'll say to Alabama Oklahoma. Everybody
has done the same thing. If there's only like two
or three people that have taken Missouri or taken Texas,
Oklahoma and Texas, who.
Speaker 7 (13:27):
Do you like, Yeah, that's Oklahoma at defense.
Speaker 9 (13:30):
He's young manning up.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Yeah, you know, but a lot of things happened in Dallas.
Just remember it said neutral. They played this game in
Dallas every year.
Speaker 9 (13:41):
They say it's a neutral field.
Speaker 11 (13:43):
But it's in Dallas.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
I don't know it's in Texas.
Speaker 9 (13:46):
Austin is just an hour and a half up the road.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
But no, I agree with you totally. No, it's a
little more than that. It's doing a half up the road. Yeah,
it's doing half. It's a nice little ride from from
Austin the capitol to Dallas.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
I lived in Dallas, Kevin.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
I've got you otter three, six, ten, thirteen games you've

Speaker 2 (31:55):
Ron, We've got you down, appreciate your brother that it
was a pleasure, and leave ballot Nation alone. And so
everybody gangs up on me. So, Doc, you've got a
magnet program here. Let's talk about that a little bit.
What's going on that Atherton?
Speaker 1 (32:11):
Okay?
Speaker 13 (32:11):
So well, Atherton is the only international Baccalaureate Magnet program
in JCPS for one of just four in the entire
state of Kentucky.
Speaker 12 (32:19):
It is a worldwide academic program.
Speaker 13 (32:23):
It is known as the most rigorous high school diploma
that any student in the entire world can achieve. And
so we have that program here. We have I think
about thirty kids in line to be what they call
full IB diploma candidates.
Speaker 12 (32:40):
But we're an IB world school, so every single one.
Speaker 13 (32:43):
Of our kids takes a minimum of two IB courses
before they graduate. And so we're kind of that that
diamond in the rough, if you will. We're kind of
that unknown.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
So true we hear about Male High School, You're so right,
we are about manual.
Speaker 1 (32:59):
I did not know that about it.
Speaker 12 (33:00):
We're actually top ten in the state.
Speaker 13 (33:03):
We've been named to the US News and World Reports
Best High School's List for thirteen years in a row
and running.
Speaker 12 (33:09):
Congratulations, So we're kind of one of those if you know,
you know, and.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
You know, congratulation. I appreciate you're so right. What is secret?
Speaker 2 (33:17):
I did not know that, No, I did. I didn't
even know you were a magnet program.
Speaker 13 (33:21):
Yeah, we are a district wide magnet program, or one
of the few district wide magnet programs for that that
high academics, and so that's one of those things that
we pair with you. You heard Thearius a little bit
earlier talking about his his engineering dreams. So we actually
are also the only school that's a dual magnet in
an Academies of Louisville school. So we offer a full
(33:42):
engineering pathway, health sciences pathway, and media arts pathway. So
you're you're sitting here and you've got me on the media.
This is something that I do on the regular with
my kids. But kids like Darius, and you know, hundreds
of kids like him, are actually in a four year
engineering pathway and so they regularly go out to business
partners ups, Republic airways, things like that and meet mentors
(34:05):
and get hands on experience in college credit while they're here.
Speaker 5 (34:08):
Congratulations, I got a baby girl to graduate from ATHING,
So I already know about Afterton, you know, that's one
of the reason we did. And they also have one
of the smaller class as of almost any schools in
Jefson County. So I know a lot about the academics Afteritude.
And how long has your program been in the national program?
How did y'all get selected for that?
Speaker 13 (34:25):
We've been an international baccalaureate program since the early eighties,
so over forty years we're pushing up I think on
your fifty here in the next probably about forty five
years now we've been in IB.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
Well, it's fantastic, so fantastic, amazing.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
How long have you been here?
Speaker 12 (34:41):
This is my fifth year?
Speaker 3 (34:43):
Yeah, you know, doctor.
Speaker 5 (34:45):
I'd like to say if a lot of Jeffson County
families knew what you would guys really do in the
educational system, I think we would be more impressed than
every time we could talk about you.
Speaker 3 (34:53):
We talk about how much money you don't have.
Speaker 5 (34:55):
But with you guys accomplishing academically with our students and
putting them in a world class facilities and stuff like that,
I think it's so fantastic about what you're doing, and
I think you need to be recognized about the academics
that's going on in Jesson County as well.
Speaker 12 (35:08):
As I appreciate that.
Speaker 13 (35:09):
Yeah, I mean we do, and you know, I'm proud
of what we do at Atherton. But you know, these
stories are at every JCPS.
Speaker 3 (35:14):
Yes, I know, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 13 (35:15):
Yeah, So you know, well, I'm always gonna tellt with
thank you for that. There are great things going on
in every single TXPS high school every single day.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
You're all the negativity, That's what I'm saying there.
Speaker 13 (35:27):
You go, well, well, the great things don't sell stories, right,
so they don't sell commercially exactly, So.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
How many students do we have?
Speaker 2 (35:34):
It?
Speaker 1 (35:34):
After that? And we are.
Speaker 12 (35:36):
Busting at the seam.
Speaker 13 (35:37):
So here in the spring, we're going to open up
a twenty thousand square foot edition to kind of help
with our space. We're our capacity is about twelve hundred
and I have close to fifteen hundred and fifty kids
here right now, and so it's becoming a little bit
less of a secret and we're kind of busting at
(35:58):
the seam. So I'm really looking forward to adding twelve
new classrooms, twenty thousand square feet.
Speaker 2 (36:03):
We need so yeah, extended. You have a college basketball
floor here now. I walked in and saw that.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
It's beautiful.
Speaker 12 (36:10):
Yeah, we do well.
Speaker 13 (36:11):
You know, one of the things I believe is is
we're gonna be competitive academically, and we do that for
the kids. You know, I want our kids to have
every opportunity available to them when we leave. I meet
with every senior every year and I tell them that
as a parent, I want their Atherton diplomba to stand
for something.
Speaker 12 (36:28):
You know, there's six thousand other kids graduating in.
Speaker 13 (36:31):
Twenty twenty six this year, and I want our four
hundred kids to stand out. And so what's going to
be different. So we actually are number one of the
state and post secondary readiness and so like just yesterday
we had a college fair. We had everything from Ivy
League universities here represented regional local universities all the way
down to your trade schools and then straight into job
(36:52):
because we want kids to have those opportunities. But speaking
of that too, we're going to be competitive academically those kids.
Speaker 12 (36:58):
You know it, Athletics works right along with it.
Speaker 13 (37:01):
You know, you all know that if you were an
athlete that develops everything around you, and so we're trying
to give you know, world class facilities. So we have
we've expanded, We've got college dimensions. We actually are back
on the back fifty acres. We just opened up a
brand new softball complex. It's the only turf softball field
in Louisville plays at college dimensions as well. So we're
(37:26):
we're trying also to give the best of the best
opportunities to our student athletes.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
You all are listening to doctor Stephie, floor principal at
Atherton High School. We're sitting in the locker room. Their
football team is doing a fantastic job this season. Lost
one game. Great job only.

a position to be in those games and to win
those games, you know, I don't think it's a surprise
anymore when we're winning ball games. I think it's an expectation.
