[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone have a hotline number to report for the MCPS residency compliance office? Is there a different name for it? There are two kids in my children's class who live Howard County. We were given their address for birthday parties and sleepovers. Parents aren't divorced but MoCo is closer to DC for their work.

You can report it to your school.  But, it is highly unlikely that the school will do much.  Schools in MCPS are underfunded and overcrowded with not enough staff.  Nobody has the time to chase after residency fraud!  That’s why it is so common, IMO.

There are 4 girls on DD’s soccer team who live out of bounds.  Two use a grandparents’ address, one uses an aunt’s address and one uses a friend’s address.  None of them have a COSA.  They have been doing this for years and it has never been an issue.

I guess it’s also very tough to prove residency fraud?  If the family above is using a grandparent’s address, then they are having bills sent there.  Tough for MCPS to actually prove where the family lives.

My guess is that the family who lived in Howard County has a mailing address in MoCo and used that to get report cards and stuff mailed to.  That is what most families do.[/quote]

Pure speculation.

Just report it and make MCPS do their jobs. I'd report to hotline, individual schools don't deal with this appropriately, if at all. [/quote]
