It's up to principal's discretion. So a family that moves in for a year and then leaves is less likely to get dispensation from the principal of an in-demand school to stay than a family that has live IB for a few years and become part of the community.

I agree that Oyster/Woodley is your best bet for dual-language. [/quote]

my understanding is the Janney Principal told the family not to worry.  They rented IB for 3 months - so when they enrolled they were able to show proof of residency.  After you show proof, you do not need to provide evidence again.

If you look the part - you are good.[/quote]

Wrong, you provide proof of residency every year.  I am not sure what the conversation was, and the child may well be fine in Janney.  But it is simply not accurate that proof of residency occurs once.  It occurs once per year.  I know this for a fact at Janney, I would assume the other schools follow the same rules.[/quote]
