[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do they actually check zone/verify the residency provided on the applications???

I am in a zone that is Key/ASF--only a very small # of students actually live in the Key zone. Many of the 5th graders at ASF reside in the Jamestown zone, Taylor and many lottery from other school zones.  Given the VERY large waitlist # we were given on waitlist (and knowing the small key zone portion)--it doesn't add up.  There aren't even this many kids living in the actual zone.[/quote]

It doesn't say they verify address/residency in the link to how the lottery is run.

For a school zone like Key/ASF (actually has a tiny residency zone)--you get parents from other zones putting the school instead of the name of the school zone in which they reside.

Two of my own friends put ASF because they claim they didn't know that (even though one resides in Taylor zone and other one is Jamestown zone).

ATS doesn't have a zone so it doesn't face the same challenge it would tip someone off to put it in correct zone pile.[/quote]
