Find overlapping school attendance area

School search is an important part in the house hunting, either for buying or for rent. Here, 'school' usually means all schools from grade K to grade 12. You probably start the search from a particular school, which can be an Elementary school, a Middle school or a High school. You may hear it from a friend, an agent or just from the local news. Then, you do the research and believe that this is the school you like. The next step is to find out what other schools have the overlapping attendance area.
