[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are enough stories of parents flat out admitting that they faked residency for me not to worry that we're up in arms over nothing.

But for the exceptions (folks who have MD VA plates etc but whose kids are legitimately registered in DCPS), if anyone ever does report you, you just show how/why you're legit and you're fine.[/quote]Why the fuck is it, if this is some giant problem, that the only place I ever hear about this problem is on here? I have NEVER heard anyone complain about this in person, or on any other site.[/quote]

I don't know why you're so particularly upset about this, but have you done your own research?  I have spoken to staff at DCPCS and DCPS about this (among other topics) for my job (I don't work for schools but do work for the government), and I GUARANTEE you it is both a significant problem and an under-reported problem.  Why is it underreported?  There are many reasons and dynamics and they can vary from school to school in terms of what is the most prominent problem.

But getting your panties in a twist without further investigation (because, if you had done any, you wouldn't be heated and doubting the scope of the problem) is just, well it's just giving you a bunch of twisted panties.  Maybe it's not a problem at your kids' school, but do you attend any of the schools frequently mentioned here?  Are you saying you see none of this, or do you just not have the exposure and haven't looked any further?[/quote]
