When I was in school my parents had to use a different address to keep me away from a horrible high school. Sometimes you have to do things outside the box.

Parents need to know that if your cute little safe neighborhood is surrounded by crummy neighborhoods you will have a horrible batch of schools to choose from.

And, if a school a few miles away is significantly better, they WONT accept your child.
You're child HAS to go to the crummy school.
And it's sad, because you like your little quiet, hidden neighborhood.
With your cute, little house.

And you don't want to move!!!
