[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She will absolutely be moving between 2 residences/family properties. She will own, not rent out and spend much time in both.[/quote]

No, she won’t.  But good try.

By the way, schools do have mechanisms to check this, although they rarely do. My friend had a home visit and the person looked at the kids’ bedrooms and looked for things like beds, dresser/closet with kids clothes, etc. [/quote]
So mom makes sure all that is in the condo if and when an inspector comes. It’s going to be HER condo.[/quote]

Wat about the kid whose honest parents can’t afford two mortgages and who play the lottery but lose because a kid like OP’s kid is taking a spot?[/quote]
Better question- Why is Wilson the only non-selective high school that people want to go to?

She is not taking a spot if she “resides” in bounds.  Would it make a difference if she moved in to the condo?  Is that still taking a spot?  She is not doing anything legally wrong- doesn’t really matter if you agree with it or not.
She wants a “better” (perceived) education for her child.  I can’t fault her for that, I can fault DCPS for the inequities in education across the city and what they are not doing about it!

One reason that schools are uneven is that despite having pasty of money, DCPS spends on bureaucratic crap rather than classroom needs.  While they lack tutors or music teachers, some DC schools have ‘esteem’ specialists and diversity coordinators.  Diversity coordinators, in DC.  DC certainly doesn’t lack for that!  Nonsense fluff and a waste of money, which instead should be put into educational “boot camps” to bring struggling students up to grade level.[/quote]
