[Bryn-gwlad] Moving to Austin

[Laurie Brandt]

Good elementary schools are Davis, Hill, Summit and Doss they feed  
into Murchison Middle which is is an IB (International Baccalaureate)  
school. Anderson High is also IB an IB grad gets a cart blanch to go  
to any college or university in the State system of higher  
education.  There is something called an academic transfer that will  
get you kid in to any school in AISD as long as you are willing to  
transport.  I did this for my daughter Victoria, six years driving  
her to Davis from where we live in NE Austin apx Manor rd and  
Edgedale.  She is now going to Murchison, she plays violin in the  
string orchestra there.
