[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you people are in the schools, why the intensity to report? What do you gain? How strange the school community must feel, with every MD driver, a grandparent or divorced parent, who had a student legitimately enrolled but has to wonder if they're being reported for their license plate.

There has to be a better way ... [/quote]

let's see: DC kids can get the education they are entitled to, instead of be left on a waitlist (e.g. recent case of 6 cheaters found at Stokes, other cheaters found a while ago at YY); my tax dollars go to fund education of DC kids, and not of kids of people who chose to live and pay taxes elsewhere

I really do not see the drama of being investigated. I could not care less if we are investigated. I could welcome the investigators to our home in DC, invte them to talk to our neighbors who see us every morning get out of our house, show them our paystubs with DC taxes, our car with DC license plate. if we had a grandma or nanny with a MD license plate, it would be pretty easy to show we live in DC. if a family has a more complex situation, they can still accept to be audited. getting an education in a DCPS or DC charter is a service that is free for DC residents. if I apply for any public benefits (food stamps, public housing) I would find normal that I can be audited. and if I drove a mercedes I would find it even more normal.

the reality is that in some schools it appears that residency cheaters exist in good numbers. people who complain about reporting cheaters are probably the cheaters themselves [/quote]
