Confirming the option for students to transfer.

As Dr Lewis always says: Get the Facts.

From TodayNewspapers.Net 's always interesting Steve Synder:

Parents of junior high students can request a transfer to another school with which the district has a cooperative agreement on the district's dime. And the district had to set aside 10 percent of its Title I federal money, about $100,000, to pay for any transfer costs.

Boy, wouldn't it sure relieve over-crowding in the Lancaster District if every parent who actually cared about his or her kids pulled their kids out of those failing schools?

Not that I'm exactly recommending that, but just for discussion...
