High schools that recruit kids for athletics.

Stay in your district, play with the kids you grow up with....and if you happen to have 3-4 state champ caliber kids move into your district for wrestling, or girls from 3-4 states on your basketball team....there is a * next to your championship in my view.

In very rare cases, it makes sense for a kid's family to move to a different district. I have a cousin that has a son who is a very talented WR (he's being recruited by Baylor, Oklahoma State, and West Virginia), but the coach of the high school team when he was a freshman ran a single wing offense and there was zero talent at QB. His dad started talking to other coaches at other schools in the area and they found a school with a great QB that was the same age with a coach that runs a pass heavy offense. They moved to that district and it was definitely better for my cousin's sons future.
