FCPS doesn't really check.

That is why schools such as WSHS are overcrowded.

You only need to show residency the first time you enroll, such as kindergarten.

Then, you can move wherever you want in Ffx or even LC, PWC, MD or DC.  As long as you don't change your address, you can stay in the high performing FCPS pyramid through graduation.

FCPS does not check residency each year or when your kids move between levels such as ES to MS or MS to HS.

It is sooooo easy to commit residency fraud in FCPS.

Unfortunately, there are schools like WSHS that are now getting rezoned due to overcrowding, due in part to extensive residency fraud.  The school board and superintendent are aware that it is happening, but claim there is only 1 person for 180,000 students available to check residency.   They say this publicly, so clearly they support residency fraud and would rather rezone people who purchased in bounds, than to do a simple utility bill check for residency when the kids select their classes or pick up their schedule or transfer between levels.

To OPs question, please, please do not do this.  It is not victimless fraud as kids in school pyramids like yours are having their lives thrown into chaos due to rezoning and overcrowding, in part by those committing residency fraud like this woman wants you to do.  Fcps changed rezoning policy 8130 to require district wide rezoning every 5 years.

You say you are an empty nester.

How would you have felt if your kids got rezoned because people committing residency fraud caused their high school to become overcrowded?
