[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, I am seriously considering renting a one-bedroom apartment WOTP or in Takoma Park when my kid hits middle school. We will sleep there Sun-Thurs, and go home to our house IB for Wells/Coolidge for the weekend. If you are being taxed on a rental or a second home - you are supporting the schools. Flame away. [/quote] I think if you are *actually* leaving there Sunday-Thursday, that’s the majority of the week, and so that’s your residence, and so you aren’t committing boundary fraud. What’s more interesting, is that out of a multitude of potential options, this one makes sense somehow.[/quote] We have lived in Takoma, DC for 20+ plus years and the middle school/high school have been awful the entire time. So, we either kill ourselves to afford private school, pay tuition to MoCo - but then you could be sent to school wherever they have space (e.g., Germantown) or get a cheap rental and squeeze ourselves into it for the minimum amount of time you need to be there to be IB. Kids could get into test-in or OOB lottery, but if not, camping in one bedroom might be our option. [/quote]
