True or false: Residents are moving so teens can attend specific high school?
By gabesemenza in Crowdsourcing

I'm working on a story that details the buzz about the opening later this year of the two new high schools.

I've heard from a number of people who say residents are moving from one side of town to the other so teens can attend the high school their parents perceive as better.

So far, I've yet to locate and interview any families or parents who say they will move. This afternoon, I will visit with VISD to understand the rules that pertain to such moves.

Do you plan to move so that your child will attend East or West high school, or do you know anyone who plans to do so (or has already done so)?

If you know of names, please call me at 361-580-6519 or e-mail me at gsemenza@vicad.com. We want to avoid naming people in here until I have a chance to verify tips.

Thanks for your help,
