[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of the posts on this thread are engaged in marveling or looking slack-jawed at the ongoing incompetence of DCPS.  There's only so much you can say about the fact that residency fraud has been going on for a long time.

But looking at Grosso's latest response to the reporting of the issue, it is clear that he doesn't care to address these facts.  Doesn't this mean that what we're looking at is NOT incompetence?  Having one investigator on staff to manage the entire issue is just not incompetence.  It's tolerance.  I think the most interesting question is WHY DCPS managers and leadership are tolerant.  And, the DC Council seem to be tolerant, combined with something like fear?[/quote]

try to keep up - this is an OSSE issue not limited to DCPS.  there is just as much residency fraud in charters as DCPS, if not more.  Which is it -- 'the DCPS schools all suck and nobody wants to enroll in them or the schools are overflowing with unchecked non-residents'? SMH[/quote]

What it IS is a lot of residency fraud. That's it.  Clearly many of the fraudsters don't care if the schools suck, dcps or charter or whatever, they want to drop their kids off in DC.[/quote]

Before and after care is the main driver (no pun intended).  It's free or almost-free stuff.[/quote]
