[quote=Anonymous]IOW, paying income taxes gets you into a DC school, but it is your residence (which determines your property taxes) that determines which school you may attend. At least charters disambiguate the two. In any event, any school you would actually want to enroll your child in (either DCPS or charter) most likely has a waiting list. By law, you can attend as long as you pay tuition. However, you should be aware that your position on the waitlist will - by law - be subordinate to the position of any DC resident, even one who signed up after you. It's effectively impossible to attend a desirable DC public school (DCPS or Charter) from outside the District, despite a willingness to pay tuition. You'll always come in last place on the priority list, and all the good (even some of the mediocre) schools have lists.[/quote]
