Ah, but PP said the 100 with the worst attendance and disciplinary records that are ALSO out of bounds students. That's gonna sweep up a majority Black/Latinx group. At any rate, it is dumb and racist idea and will never be implemented. [/quote]

OK - for all kids who are OOB at any school (even originally IB and move OOB and stay at the school), enforce if they have more than X tardy days they need to go to their neighborhood school.   (what ever the established policy is that is not enforced) .   Tardy students are disruptive to the classroom.  I frequently see students coming off of Tenleytown metro at 8:40 with no sense of urgency to get to school.

Wilson already does this. [/quote]

Really?!  How many OOB students have been kicked out of Wilson for discipline problems or habitual absence/tardiness?  [/quote]

I recall discussion here on DCUM in fall of 2017 about 20-25 students not being allowed to re-enroll for absences / tardies -- of course that isn't a stat that DCPS would (or should) publish somewhere. [/quote]
