[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How difficult would it be for DCPS and charters to be enrolled in an e-verify (“D-verify”) type system that could quickly and efficiently confirm a parent’s name against DC tax/voter/public assistance/motor vehicle records?[/quote]
Not difficult at all. DC TAG applications now do this. [/quote]

But you would have to centralize the enrollment process to institute this for public schools (which is fine w/me) but some think would be a hassle.

OSSE could easily incentivize all the charters to participate by auditing all of their families if they don't. [/quote]

Here’s how you incentivize the public schools and the charters.  If a fraudster student leaves, the school still keeps the per pupil allocation.  But if OSSE finds that the school failed to verify residency or ignored red flags, then there should be a 3x allocation penalty assessed against the school.  That, and give facility, staff members and other whistleblowers a reward for verified residency fraud cases, and DC will start to make a dent in this problem.[/quote]

So your plan is to take even more money away from the resident students?[/quote]

The problem now is that unscrupulous school principals have a financial incentive to look the other way at residency fraud, particularly in under-capacity schools.[/quote]
