[quote=Anonymous]I find it funny that this is considered a deep dive.  There is so much to residency fraud.  I would love to see a series on it.   I would love to see a quarterly "scorecard" on it.

There is public data that was published a few years ago that had where children lived and the schools they attended.  There was a child enrolled at Anacostia who had a home address in Ward 3.  Hey DC detectives - start with the things that make people say WTF!!!

DC - there is this thing called big data - you know when addresses are used by multiple families.  The residency audit should see when 1 family provides a electiric bill, a second family a gas bill and a 3rd a water bill for evidence of residency.

DC - do NOT provide transcripts so families can enroll their children elsewhere if their is an outstanding bill.

DC - start with current Ellington Seniors.  Go validate the residency papers.  Do not give diplomas if there is fraud. Next go to the Junior class.   Parent's would FREAK OUT if they thought their child would not be able to apply to college next year.   [/quote]
