Study: Clayton Schools Top Choices for St. Louis City Transfers

A November study indicates thousands of St. Louis City children would look to transfer to School District of Clayton facilities if they had the option. The information comes ahead of a planned 2012 Turner v. Clayton trial.

Thousands of St. Louis City students likely would seek to transfer to Clayton schools if the option became available to the adults responsible for them, a new study states.

Quoting from a summary on the 's website:

"More than 3,500 of those students would list Clayton as their first choice on where to enroll. Additionally, more than 3,100 of 15,000+ who would transfer have IEPs and would need some level of special education services."
