First day drop off -- MD tags

[Anonymous]

I picked up my son's friend for a playdate on Southern Ave right by the MD border. There were several MD and VA plates parked on the street. I don't think that its by a metro stop, and it doesn't seem like the kind if neighborhood with nannies - I was curious.

It could be a foster parent. Almost half of the DC foster parents live outside of DC.

DC needs more foster parents that reside in the district.

Does the child live with grandma or the other parent? If the other parent owns property in DC, I hope he owes you enough child support to live near him and near the school.

Seriously.. where does the kid live? With you/Grandma in Maryland? or with dad in DC? Sounds like you have sole custody and using your ex-husband's (baby daddy's?) address. It doesn't seem right.

Not sure where on Southern Ave you were but there is a Southern Ave. metro station. Also, United Medical Center is there and some people may park off site.

Yup.

so many variables here and the school has all residency documentation they need.

Whatever the school has is a lie, and doesn't adequately represent that the child doesn't actually sleep in DC at night.
This is amazing. "My kid got a spot in that charter school that your child is 400th on the waitlist for, even though they don't live in DC. My ex owns property in DC; grandma owns a business in DC but lives in MD, so do I because I cannot afford to live in DC. Don't waste your time reporting me."

OMG. Could this be an any bigger F* U* to the rest of us struggling to figure out whether to pack up and leave the city because our kids didn't get in anywhere? This woman has a serious set of balls, and DCPS should grab her by those balls ASAP.

OP here -- I'd really like to think it was one of the legitimate reasons stated in prior posts, but it sure didn't seem like it. It seemed like people that live in Maryland dropping their kids off on the way to work.

Not a rental car, not a foster parent, not grandma, not military -- kids calling parents "mom" and very much looking like they'd just been on a 40 minute car ride.

It seemed very casual. That was the most jarring part.

PP isn't being an ass. Unabashed residency cheater who tells this whole community "get over it, you can't catch me." is an ass.

Whatever happened to those DC Cops who were cheating in order to get locality pay? Or those GAO employees who lied in order to get free school lunches in PG? It's all fraud, stealing from the public purse. DC residency cheaters should get no less punishment. They are stealing.

Do charter schools do home visits at the beginning of the year?

Some do, some don't. But point of home visits isn't to confirm residency.

The baby daddy comment makes PP an ass.

You are assuming the post is real. That post has troll written all over it. And it is working.

Couldn't agree with you more. Considering that there is 1 spot per 100 some students for PK3, PP is definitely an asshole.
