[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The question was not about whether families should do it (rent an apartment and live there July through December before moving back to the house they own in Shaw or Logan Circle or Michigan Park), but if people know of any families who have done it.  We talk about it all the time on DCUM as something you can or shouldn't do.  But does anyone ever do it?

I know a lot of lottery families and a lot of families that move from one JKML boundary to another and stay at their previous school. And I know someone using a grandparent's address. But no one I know falls into this category. Maybe brief renters tell parents they lotteried?  Or maybe there's always an easier, better plan b?

I've heard people talk about it. [b]And I know of a couple families that own more than one property and enrolled using the one zoned for the more desirable school even though in both cases, they actually lived at the property zoned for the less desirable school.[/b] But I think even that is arguably different from taking on a brief rental you don't actually live in purely to enroll at a particular school, and I have no idea if that actually happens.

Yes i know someone in this category, too. I would never "snitch" but I do find it a little bit shady. [/quote]
