[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP did you try looking up MCPS “moved” or “change of address” that affects home school cluster?

Or try calling Blair or central office and say you moved from one cluster and are now in theirs/Blair’s and what should your next steps be to attend the proper school?

I think you’re over complicating this issue.[/quote]

I have. The people at the consortium choice office (the people in charge of enrollment/transfers/etc) told me that [b]since I'm requesting a change within the DCC, that I would ave to wait until January for the change of choice process[/b]. I don't understand why they're making it so complicated, especially because Blair is my home school, but nonetheless I'm just confused what my next steps have to be to ensure she goes there for the next school year. [/quote]

I think they're right, though. Since she is already enrolled as a student at a DCC high school, there is a once-a-year process for requesting a transfer to another DCC school.[/quote]

So she’s not guaranteed to go to her home school?[/quote]

Makes no sense. Typical MCPS which is why they need outside advocate to cut through the MCPS bs. [/quote]
It makes plenty of sense when there are hundreds of people trying to game the system like OP is. [/quote]

Seriously? There are hundreds of people who actually moved so their kid can go to their preferred school after a COSA is rejected? I doubt that. Most people are not that persistent.[/quote]

[b]+1. I have lived in the Einstein cluster for well over 20 years and had a kid go through Blair HS. I have literally heard of no one selling a home in one part of the DCC to buy a home zoned for Blair just so their kids can go to HS there. I'm sure it happens, but I do not think it is common.[/quote][/b]

Believe me, lots of renters do this this.[/quote]

Sure, I've known a lot of renters to do this too. We are talking about OP who is not a renter. How many homeowners do you know that have sold a house in Einstein (for example) and then bought a house in Blair's zone to move them to Blair just for high school.[/quote]
