[quote=Anonymous]I'm a DCPS teacher and I can think of about 15 kids at my school who live in MD. Some have told me flat out, some I've figured out in other ways. This is anecdotal, of course, but if I can think of 15 without even trying I'm assuming there are at least another 15 that I don't know about.

I'm sure the next question will be, have you reported it? And, no. Administration has made it pretty clear that they don't want to know. And in some ways, I can see their point--if the administration goes on a hunt to kick these kids out (many of whom are part of families who are well liked, are involved, etc.) it's going to cause a trust issue with remaining families. So while I don't necessarily agree with that stance, I do sort of understand it. I think systemwide tougher verification (random checks, etc) is the way to go, because if it's something the entire district is doing the administration doesn't come out looking like the bad guys. I'm a DC taxpayer too, and I don't like the fact that there's so much cheating.
