[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That seems counterproductive to wait until graduation.  What are you going to do if you find out they don't have residency? Deny them their diploma??[/quote]

+1. yes, people do bang at the door of DCPS, but waiting until HS graduation to check the residency is really stupid. as the poster above noted, are you going to deny them the diploma? make their parents pay tuition for K12 years in DCPS? plus, if this is the rule, kids would just "move" to DC during their last year. I think what would work is school doing their job of reporting kids who may not be resident in DC, and DCPS do random audit (like IRS), and every single time a cheater is found, DC government should go all the way to obtain payment of the back tuition (in addition to kicking the child out). the reality is that now whenever a cheater is found, the child may be kicked out, but parents do not end paying tuition for the years the child was in DCPS.  so cheater have no reasons not to cheat. if they are caught they just go back to their local schools.
