Suburban Bham where I live has self governed incorporated neighborhoods, so schools like Mountain Brook, Vestavia, Homewood, etc have their own school systems. Very expensive to buy a house there and not many affordable apartments- though good players are brought in as in all public schools. So really suburban schools here are semi-private. Not the same in Huntsville, Montgomery, Mobile.
Right, but that is mostly a legal technology to respond to desegregation that doesn't really scale beyond highly urbanized areas with sufficiently large neighborhoods with the tax base to support independent school systems.

Madison city schools, like Hoover, has only 2 large high schools. There are a few other large city schools systems w/ only a handful of schools outside of Birmingham. Gulf Shores City is another.
