[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question: can't issues of residency be solved by cross-checking other government databases? For example, why doesn't DCPS cross-check the homestead tax exemption and property tax records? And DC taxes? Wouldn't this type of cross checking go a long way to establishing residency in most circumstances? [/quote] That would be too logical. There is simply little poltical will to deal with this problem. My child's school is one of the ones mentioned in the article. I know of 3 kids in his class who live in MD. They have their birthday parties in pg county, parents drive cars with MD plates, have md phone numbers, etc. They've been at the school for 5 years. There's just no desire by administraton to deal with this. [/quote]
