[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But mom has custody. What right does some school board have in redefining legal definitions? Are these terms even clearly explained to all parents when they enroll? Just about every family is going to have some kind of address or status change in the next 12 years, and if some school board redefines their definitions, do they even inform everyone?

Starting a witch hunt of currently enrolled students is not going to fix the issue with dc education. The inquisition board is a waste of education dollars that could be spent better.[/quote]

based on the article there was a hearing where the family lied on the facts (where the child lives). if you say that your grand child lives with his mom in DC while he comes home every night with you in MD, has dinner with you, sleeps in your home and you druve him to school the day after, it is not an honest mistake. she has only be accused so far, so we will have to see how it goes[/quote]

I don't know why the family lied at the hearing.  Perhaps they were afraid that a more thourough investigation would uncover damaging information, e.g., mom's current boyfriend, whom she loves deeply, is a convicted pedophile and if her relationship with him were discovered child and family services would be called in.

Perhaps they also think that the law requires children attending DCPS to be DC residents.  Why wouldn't they?  DCPS insists that this is the law.

A person who has not broken the law does not become guilty of breaking the law because he mistakenly believes he has broken the law.  He must actually break the law to be guilty. [/quote]

Wow you are going to all lengths to defend this cheating aren't you.  You do realize the reason in this article was a DC public school principal at the time her great grandad attended her school, right?  So are you really trying to propose with a straight face that she didn't know the residency requirements and made an honest mistake?  You are either nuts or your kid is currently illegally enrolled and you're practicing your defense.[/quote]
