[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So are these kids removed / not allowed to re-enroll?

(Oh no - it would be too disruptive)

These special placements should be treated like a family that moves OOB (under the new rules.) Remain for the rest of this school year. Then either enter the lottery to maintain your seat, move in-boundary by next school year, or enroll in your in-boundary school. [/quote]

That isn't the rule. The DCPS lottery and enrollment handbook now states that students who move OOB after K can stay with their cohort through the full feeder path. Right to the feeder path is now explicit - not even up to principal discretion. [/quote]

Please post the cite/link for this policy.  Thanks.[/quote]

Good to know that if DC strikes out in the lottery we can move to the Deal catchment for only a couple of months to game the system.[/quote]

Or you can do what many regular old rich people do: rent a cruddy studio apartment in the Deal boundary for the 3 years of middle school, and use that address while continuing to live in the cushy house in Wesley Heights or Capitol Hill. You would be shocked by the number of families doing this and by how open they are about it.[/quote]
