Mattawan Schools Enroll 469 Outside Students

This interesting chart via Julie Mack shows the number of students in each school district who go outside the district and come into the district to attend school.

Most notable is that 469 students from outside the Mattawan school district attend school there. Mattawan voters have recently defeated two tax increases to expand school facilities. So it is now clear that the Mattawan schools administration accepted hundreds of students from outside the district and then demanded a tax increase when its facilities weren't big enough.
