Transferring schools is extremely easy. Theres a ton of loopholes.
When I was in high school, a lot of times we would get transfers from the heavily black populated high schools on minority transfers. Since my school was majority white, these students could transfer if they were black to "diversify the school."
Also if your school received a failing grade on the state wide standardized test, then kids can transfer to an "A" school but maybe "B" too. Not really sure. But this is always for "academic" reasons.
Theres also magnet program route. Like the criminal justice example in another post.
Worst case scenario is you find someone in the school zone you want to go to and ask to use their address. I even knew somebody that used an elementary school's address. As long as no one reports you you're in clear.
