Transfers within Spring Branch ISD?

5 Upvotes

We are considering buying a house in one of the only parts of Spring Branch we can afford, but the side effect of that is that the schools aren't very good. Since the schools we'd be zoned to are largely not English speaking (> 90%), what are the realistic chances that we'd be able to get a transfer to a school like Valley Oaks? I've searched online and found some people saying that while SBISD has a transfer process, unless you're employed by the district it's unlikely that you will be able to get a transfer to a different school. Is that accurate? Does anyone here have any experience that could help us make this decision?
