Consider an HTML form built in the following way:

```
        <select name="schoolType">
            @foreach (SchoolType schoolType in Model.SchoolTypes)
            {
                <option value="@schoolType.Id">@schoolType.Name</option>
            }
        </select>

```

Now, SchoolType is a model class. It's designed in my EDMX for Entity Framework.

In the above scenario, right now, my action method looks like this:

```
    public ActionResult CreateSchool(int schoolType)
    {
        ...
        SchoolType myType = container.SchoolTypeSet.FirstOrDefault(t => t.Id == schoolType);
        ...
    }

```

Would it be possible to program some kind of helper so that MVC would automatically know to convert the integer into a Model class with that ID, like the following action method signature?

```
    public ActionResult CreateSchool(SchoolType schoolType)
    {
        ...
    }

```
