Dumb reason to leave. Gonna be a lot harder to win championships now.

I guess if you are a school district operating in CA but trying to adhere to Nevada rules, there will be problems. Frankly I think California State is the problem child here.

Letter from Kersten Kramer “chief learning officer”says it all. WTF. Kids are being brainwashed

State championships? Wont ever win another. Those FIVE state titles in Nevada last year will be their last. Welcome to California and big boy/girl ball...

Not sure what division Truckee lands in, but they beat eventual state champ St. Vincent last year. So the door isn't fully closed

I don't think this is fully set yet - Truckee and North Tahoe are petitioning to stay in the NIAA for now. It sucks that politics gets involved from both Nevada and California due to an issue that impacts such a miniscule part of high school sports and society in general. For both Truckee and North Tahoe, the travel logistics of playing in California leagues is extremely difficult - for football, it's once a week. For every other sport, it's a lot of travel, impacting school, missed class, etc. Think of the freshman basketball team on a bus heading over Donner Summit in a snowstorm in January to play down in Marysville for a Tuesday late afternoon game. It's the kids at both of those schools that have to deal with the fallout.

If South Lake Tahoe is staying in the NIAA why wouldn’t the other schools be able to?
Weird

Good point. Usually, when things don't add up like this, it is due to the lawyers or district level admin that interpret a law one way, and the same for another district interpreting the same law(s) a different way. Most school districts have some lawsuit or another at any given time, so avoiding them is important (obviously). It is just that some districts are more averse to risks (whether major or minor) than others.
