[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=andyhomesearch]Hello,

We have moved out of DC into neighboring Virginia and completed the withdrawal form for my child who was in DC elementary school this past year. In the withdrawal form we did NOT mention the name of the new school my child was going to for privacy purposes.

The DC elementary school administrator is forcing us that we need to provide the name of the new school in Virginia otherwise, they cannot complete the withdrawal and mentioned that it would trigger a very long complicated process.

Can someone please advise us how to navigate this as we do not want to give the name of the new school where my child is attending now?

Thanks so much![/quote]
OP, we had the very same issue two years ago.  We ignored the ES administrator who tried to force us to provide the name of the new school in VA for a few weeks, despite her repeated attempts to contact us.  [b]We were then contacted by a DC Child Protective Services social worker.  [/b]The social worker simply asked us to provide documentation that we'd moved to VA in the form of a valid drivers license for one of us.  We emailed her a copy of the license and she closed the case right away.  End of story.  Good luck.  [/quote]

You intentionally wasted limited city resources to indulge your Main Character Syndrome.  Neat.[/quote]

Seriously. Talk about a waste of resources… just give the name of the school.  DCPS is working to tackle truancy issues so even if you could have slid by in the past, it’s unlikely now and you’re wasting a lot of people’s time fighting this very, very dumb fight. [/quote]
