[quote=Anonymous]OP, those aren't "creative solutions." Those are lies. Fraud. When you submit your residency papers, you sign that the information provided is true. Listing a fake address is fraud. You do not live there. Using a friend's address is fraud too, though it's less clearly cut. Renting an apartment for a month to get into a school may work, but next year, you will likely be asked to resubmit your paperwork. At which point, you'd be lying, again. That's not "creative" - it's fraud. As for your question, we are out of bounds at a school that is not highly sought after. Where we live comes up often. It came up around my daughter's birthday. It came up during the summer when setting up play dates with friends. At our school, people know where people live. I don't know that a cheater would be looked down on, but that's mostly because our school is not a highly desired school and we do have a lot of OOB students (including my child). It's pretty impossible to sort out who got in as an OOB student legitimately and who lied. But if I found out that somebody had lied, yes, I would think less of them and would distance myself from that family. [/quote]
