A: The children have to go to school where Mom lives. There is no answer for the 2nd question. That is evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

A: Wow! That’s a tough situation. Children usually go where the primary custodial parent is districted for. Moving out of district will be considered on a case by case basis.
A: The children will go to school in mom's school district as that is their residential address. If you move so far away that it interferes with dad's ability to exercise his parenting time, that could be considered a material change in circumstances warranting a modification of the parenting plan.
