[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s no reason DC couldn’t adopt the residency rules that other states use that require a child to be primarily domiciled in the jurisdiction in order to attend school there. [/quote] Because then they'd have to admit that despite everything the population of DC children has not grown, except in the pre-k arena early years. In my street in DC due to gentrification all the families have moved out and single people have moved in, the section 8 apartment buildings are now condos and there are only a handful of children on my street and they are toddlers. [/quote] DC has added something like 17,000 kids in the past four years. But DCPS is flat except for the kids who have been taken out of private special ed placements. All the added kids have gone charter or private. Both are booming.[/quote]
