[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Top priority should be schools where [b]even IB kids are waitlisted for pk3/pk4[/b].  And schools that are "overcrowded" such that the kids that attend the school are negatively affected (including their feeders).

Those schools should undergo an immediate audit.

Once that is done, DCPS needs to conduct regular audits at other schools and change their residency verification program.

Time to clean up shop.

+1000 and a check of any immediate relatives of DC employees, nieces and nephews![/quote]

Agree completely. Our WOTP had to eliminate one class of PK4 because it is the most overcrowded school in DC. One of my kids' friends was sent to her new MoCo several weeks into the school year after trying to remain at the school after her family moved. The school administration is definitely on top of it. The feeder MS, not so much - or certainly looking the other way. If we could shake loose any number of kids in the upper grades who live in other educational jurisdictions (don't get me started with OOB cheaters, lots of those too) the school building would have some breathing room and might finally be able to add PK4. It would take a lot more to even think about adding PK3 - like requiring foreign governments whose diplomats' kids attend DCPS for free to pay instead, or to apply through MSDC.[/quote]
