[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was talking with a mom who lives in MD.  She asked about a DCPS school that my DD goes to.  She was interested in having her child attend and immediately said that she was from DC, her family lived in DC and she'd use that address.  She didn't think twice about it; she really considers herself a resident of DC even though she doesn't actually live there.  It's the idea of an ancestral home-- she's "from" DC which equates to being able to access services in DC.   [/quote]

And your response?

I would have said, "I am confused Yeandra, I thought you lived in Maryland? Are you planning on moving into DC?"

I suspect you just said nothing, giving tacit approval to her plan.[/quote]

And that's just what happens at the registration desk with look and a nod.[/quote]

That depends on the school.  The 3 DC schools we've had kids attend did NOT tacitly just look and nod.  If you were suspected of cheating, they were on you, all 3 schools.[/quote]
