[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree that's a huge number being challenged and they're admitting 6 are straight up non-residents. I'm sure some of the 28 are genuinely residents with tricky situations (divorce parents, kid lives part of the time with relatives, housing insecurity issues) but would be surprised if it's 22. Usually those situations get addressed in the review process and OSSE tends to be generous with at risk kids where if they can identify any valid residence in the District, it's okay (like even if it's the grandparents residence as long as they can show the child lives with the grandparents at least some of the time). If 28 students failed to pass that review it's a significant issue.[/quote]

Well, no. They're not contesting 6 but it could be that the kid is no longer enrolled. Similarly, 22 residencies "insufficient" doesn't necessarily mean the kid is not in DC. It means the paperwork is insufficient to establish residency. Sloppy work? Yes. Pink flag? Yes. 22 out of state kids? Maybe, maybe not.[/quote]

You are so focused on the trees, you're missing the forest. The number of kids in this bucket at my DCPS ES less than a mile from TR was... 2. And the school is challenging both. Just want to put that 28 number in perspective. [/quote]

Ok but 28 out of nearly 1000 kids. [/quote]

Look at the audit for last year. There are only a handful of schools with a number as big as 6 as their audit discrepancy, which is TR's minimum possible figure.[/quote]
