[quote=Anonymous]If you have no intention of moving, but just want to avail yourself of a charter school. You have to pay. Here's what we did. We participated in the lottery and the school we wanted to pay "out of state" tuition. We were immediately given the last place on the wait list. We waited for the wait list to whittle down. As soon as our number was called we sprinted down to the school and fully enrolled. You have to do this quickly, because if a DC resident shows up you go behind them UNLESS you are fully enrolled. The school then sets up a mechanism for you to make payments which get send to OSSE, part of which is sent back to the charter to pay for your kid's services. In our case it worked because we were at a newer school. Once you're enrolled, they can't kick you out for a DC resident, and you're in for life as long as you keep paying. It's about 12K.[/quote]
