At such a young age you might not have realized, but most families do not have school choice. Were you aware of that?

17 isn’t that young, I was emancipated and thus a legal adult at the time (for convenience and work).. but yes I was fully aware of how the districts around me worked, because I used the choice program myself multiple times.

That didn’t stop me from warning the up-and-coming families, some years before it would have become an issue, so they could figure out what to do about it for themselves. None of my business beyond raising the warning call.
