[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m guessing the scenario is you enrolled your older child in your wotp very desirable in boundary school and knew you could do it last minute since you have a right to go there. And since your IB doesn’t offer pk3 you wanted to use it free free at another school. Tough, lady. [/quote]

And if this is what happened, shame on you, OP for doing that to your older child’s school. [b]Springing a newly enrolled child on your inboundary school is how we get overcrowding. Your school wasn’t prepared for him and had to be added to an already set class at the last minute[/b]. That sucks for the teacher, your kid and everyone honestly. If your older child had gotten a last minute lottery spot you would have said that inYour OP. You were trying to be slick and beat the system. [/quote]

Relax, the school will still get funding for said student.[/quote]

It’s not about funding although it could be because if count day reveals that a school has more students than the budget is based on DCPS doesn’t have to give the school more money.  Anyway.    When she didn’t enroll over the summer, the school may have decided to go to the waitlist to fill a spot they thought would go to an in-boundary child. Then OP shows up the first day of school claiming her guaranteed spot.  Now the school has an additional kid they weren’t planning on and since all wotp schools are packed it just adds to the problem. (Which is compounded when you start talking about Deal and Wilson). If multiple families try this stunt then you just exacerbate the problem. [/quote]
