As someone else mentioned earlier, they should have given St. George the school they wanted. Instead they stuck to their guns and made that entire area (which is pretty large) settle for Woodlawn.
Yep.
A lot of this comes down to the EBR school board and certain members of the legislature telling St George to frick off rather than working with them.
EBR school board refused to reform and told the petitioners to go form their own school district.
So they tried that and SWB and others told them to form their own city to secure funding.
So they did that and they got sued and we are here now.

This is the simplest but truest explanation at it's core. They said to do it. We did it. Then they said "Wait, you can't ACTUALLY do it..."

Yep.
As I mentioned the 70810 zip code is the wealthiest in EBR. Add them to the other zips in St George and they could form one heck of an ISD with the property taxes they pay.
Instead they got told “frick you, your entire area will be stuck will the one school y’all have (Woodlawn) and we will continue to milk you as our cash cow.”
At least Mayor Kip Holden understood this. Broome wouldn’t. So as Eric Cartman like to say, St. George got up and said
