Other school districts in USA don't let you choose your own high school?
-
My friend told me that the School District of Philadelphia is the only school district that lets you choose what high school you wanted to attend, and that in other school districts, you have to go to your neighborhood school. He said that this is why he can go to school in South Philly, but he lives in Roxborough. Is this true? Sorry if this question sounds stupid, I just want to know.

Answer:
In Indiana you go to the school whose district you live in. In order to go to a different school, you (your parents) must pay. In Chicago, some districts will let you go to a magnet school. And no question is stupid, only those not asked.

I guess it is true. I live in PG County in Maryland and you go to your neighborhood school unless there is a high school that provides a program that your neighborhood school doesnt have such as IB program, science and tech, or plumbing. That works for the whole state of Maryland and D.C. We have 24 high schools in our county so its not an issue. The high schools teach the same information so theres no need for us to go across the county to learn the same stuff.
