Maybe if they keep buying the houses in the top school district of the entire city. Which I've never heard of anyone doing.

Maybe easier to just form a realtor cartel?

This assumes that the entire market is for sale at a given time, which is not true. If you have 3 kids and both need to drive to work, there may be only a single digit number of viable houses for sale at a given time in your school district.
