[quote=Anonymous]The purpose of the boundary system is to limit the number of families that are entitled to a spot at a particular school to be a function of the number of homes within the geographical boundary of that school. Otherwise, the entire District would be entitled to go to the single best school in the DCPS system, and there would be no way to manage capacity vs demand. Someone renting a place in-boundary of a school, even if they don't live there, just to be able to send their children to that school, doesn't defeat the purpose of the boundary system, because the properties available for rent are still a subset of the total number of properties in the school's geographical boundary, so renting them doesn't open the floodgates for everyone outside of the boundary, they still have to find a property to rent, and that property is accounted for in the capacity that the school is meant to handle.[/quote]
