[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We moved OOB from an IB admission after years of attending an otherwise highly enrolled and performing elementary school in Capitol Hill. No one has bothered us about it. We moved in 3rd grade after attending PS3-2nd, moving literally down the street into a bigger house. No principal nor school community in their right mind would want us to leave. You mean, after spending six years educating our child to become an excellent scholar, you'd want him to enter the testing grades one school over?! And I can't see DCPS wanting to bear down on cases like these.

While I'm sure this "loophole" can be used and abused strategically, I can't readily see a rule and its implementation that would catch the "bad apples" without dredging up a whole lot of legitimate cases. Going after that is an excellent example of a policy whose good intentions will result in overkill, especially in elementary school.

If you're really worried about people scamming feeder rights, then that's another issue that should be solved in its own right.[/quote]

Which school, please? We would love to move out of the Brent boundary to get a bigger, cheaper house elsewhere on Capitol Hill and stay at Brent, but that is against the rules. [/quote]
