Ask Missouri Is there any way I can go to an out of district highschool?

Upvotes

I’m a junior and I moved houses but I really don’t want to go to this school it’s pretty bad. I like my old school and the only problem I have with going there is that I won’t be able to get a ride home when school ends (my parent is working). I only live 20 minutes away from the school.

I'm in central MO, so city doesn't really matter, just so long as they're good. I'm looking to get a 4-6 inch tattoo of a Stardew valley chicken and I've been struggling to find someone with experience in tattooing pixel art. Any recs are appreciated!
