[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]  I agree that it benefits DCPS when high earning, well educated upper middle class parents stay in DC and send their children to public school. Those parents should move in boundary to the school they would like their children to attend or they should play the lottery.

Residency fraud by middle class and affluent = good
Residency fraud by working class people = bad

This is such a double standard. Residency fraud is residency fraud.

I'd you have multiple homes and your primary residency doesn't get you into the school of your dreams do what most affluent people have always done in DC, send your child to private school.[/quote]

When PG County families who don't file, let alone pay, DC taxes use grandma's address to send their kids to a DCPS school for the free preschool and prek, they're committing fraud.  Middle-class families who rent or buy second places for lack of a remotely acceptable neighborhood school while paying income and property tax (perhaps on two properties) are different kettle of fish.   I'm not about to report parents renting 2nd places because I know that they can't afford private school and don't see the Distrist, their neighborhoods, or the schools their children attend (particularly Deal), as being better off without them.  So launch into me for not snitching.  I'll leave that to you guys.  [/quote]
