[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a message posted a page behind us that is very clear that residency only has to be established by the beginning of the school year.  And that is how it should be as far as I am concerned.  Many people value their children's education over where they live - and it appears that residency only has to be established at the time of enrollment,  which is when the year begins.  That means that if you are lucky enough to win whatever lottery you pick up and move before they ask for proof of residency.  Most of us would move heaven and earth for our children, but it takes a little time to move a household![/quote]

This only applies as a legitimate consideration if the people in OPs office are using their non-DC addresses.  This whole idea of "it's fair as long as they have legit DC addresses when they enroll" is BS if they use DC addresses they do NOT live at now to apply.  That is lying, that is gaming the system, and if you are really intending to move to DC if/when you get into a charter, then use your real VA or MD address to apply.

People with nothing to hide and no plans to game the system tell the truth.  People can say whatever else they want, but if they lie at any point, they are gaming the system and should not be protected.[/quote]
