[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just switch houses with the grandparents. Problem solved.[/quote]

Our house is a 6000 sf new home. We were planning to buy my parents a ranch house in the 400-500k range.[/quote]

And I live in a 3000 sf home built in 1930 specifically for the choice public elementary school.  I could move a 1/2 mile away and be in a different zone and save $250k.  All of us are in the same situation, but it appears not all of us are honest.  We have an anonymous tip line at our school for this thing. We also have an employee that is full-time in charge of residency issues and investigations.[/quote]

DH and I spoke about it and we are going to stick to our mediocre elementary school. Hopefully our child will get into AAP in 3rd grade.

If kindergarten turns out to be a complete disaster, we will put him in private or look into moving.

People seem to be focused on our house size. I stated that I want to do this totally legally and that I did not want to hide where we lived if we were granted the transfer/pupil placement. I wanted to knw how easy or difficult it was to do this legally.[/quote]

The posts were reacting to [i]your[/i] post about the size of [i]your[i] house and made it sound like house size was the reason you did not want to move.  Many of us have been in that same position of having to choose a larger new house in a less desirable school district or buy a smaller older home in a better school district.  It is a trade off that your posts seemed to indicate you were not willing to make.[/quote]
