For over 100 years white families have been using fake addresses to attend better schools. Black and brown students didn’t have this option until desegregation. They weren’t allowed to live in better neighborhoods and as a result could never acquire as much wealth through buying property as white families. This lack of inherited wealth continues to marginalize many families of color because the schools in poorer areas are worse.

How can people not understand school boundaries in this country are really a form of continued segregation that continues to benefit upper middle class children.

Restorative justice and closing continuation schools affects schools in poorer areas because poor minority students who want to learn and get ahead have their education continually disrupted by 10 to 20% of students who wreak havoc at poor schools.

That’s a pretty racist take, wouldn’t expect anything less from the equity warriors.

If you go after UMC families as you’d like, you destroy the system. That’s just the reality of the situation.

NP. Agree

DEI was and is racism. It’s bigotry, disguised as virtue.

+1

At its core, DEI seeks to treat people differently based on the color of their skin.

+2. The only posters who ever bring up race in these forums are the people claiming UMC families are all racist. Equity warriors tend to get pretty vile in pursuit of a justification to destroy the school system. They aren’t too bright.

OP, its already incredibly easy to transfer into Langley. There are two ways and Langley loves having them

1) If you are zoned for a nearby IB school, its very straight forward. Submit the paperwork and you are accepted.

2) Transfer for Russian. This is the way that most of the top students transfer in through if they do not get into TJ.

There is no need to break the law.

1) A. Don't you need to be enrolled in an AP to do this? That will be hard for 9/10 graders.
B. This only work if the school is not at capacity.

No, I would not do this for a coworker.

Niece or grandchild, maybe. You could always say the family member lives with you part of the time.

You would be responsible for repaying the $20,000 tuition when the fraud is uncovered and there are plenty of other parents or employees of the school system eager to turn you in. And, by the way, you would be the one committing the fraud.

Did you miss that the other family lives in Fairfax? Almost all of your analysis is wrong.

I don’t really care either way, but it bothers me when posters confidently proclaim that x or y will happen, when you have no basis for that claim.

A Class 4 misdemeanor, max punishment: a $250 fine.

Talk about deterrence!

No, they do not need to enrolled in an AP course. They only need to express that they do not want the IB courses.

And

Langley is well under capacity.

I would love to see your data proving white families are using fake addresses to attend certain public schools. And apparently they've been doing it for 100 years.

Show me the data.

Progressive dumbasses are still dumbasses. Stupidity and ignorance have no political boundaries.

Langley will not be under capacity next year. The McLean attendance island is being added

My next door neighbor let his friends use his address to send their kids to Churchill, Cooper, and Langley for the past eight year. No, FCPS never checks once in eight years.

I can’t for the life of me find anyone charged for this. Anyone been able to locate a case?
