Public education differs pretty widely from state to state. However, there has been a general trend to start allowing charter schools to exist and for them to allow for enrollment based off of broader geographic area.

Specifically here in Arkansas the laws have created a mess. Unintended consequence or planned loophole, but in any case you pretty much can have your kid apply to any charter school in this state. https://medium.com/orchestrating-change/hey-arkansas-loophol...

It's so bad that Tim Tebow's high school homeschool/football shenannigans are being recreated here. Public school districts are being caught working towards having statewide recruitment for high school football teams. https://medium.com/orchestrating-change/deep-benches-shallow...
