The City of Kosciusko is working with the local school district to crack down on students from outside the district whose parents falsify documents to get them into the Kosciusko schools.
Mayor Tim Kyle says the city is considering an ordinance that would penalize parents for doing that.
“It just shows that the City of Kosciusko is committed to ensuring the response and appropriate use of taxpayer funds that actually go to our students that live here,” said Kyle
Kyle says school officials have determined that students from as many as four other counties are enrolled in the Kosciusko schools.
No action was taken on the ordinance at this week’s meeting of the board of aldermen, but the board plans to vote on it at the next meeting Tuesday, Nov. 19.
