So I live in Suffolk county ny. I’m curious to know if
1. Do all areas have zoned schools?
2. Does my child have to go to their zoned school?
I’m talking pre-k here.
3. Can I apply to another school.

I am literally 500 feet from a better school district.

You would likely do better by asking this in the appropriate NY Forum for specifics.

I can answer your questions in a general way:

1) For those school systems which have more than one school on a level (elementary, middle, high) then yes, attendance zones are typically how your child is assigned to a specific school.

2) Usually. Some systems make exceptions for child care or programmatic reasons.

3) Maybe. It would depend on the school system and the rationale for the transfer.
