Bonus that it advantages people with more money.

It actually advantages housing unstable children that may be moving multiple times a year, every year. If those kids can have one less disruption acts destabilizing event in their lives, then the policy is accomplishing it’s goal. It’s a right instead of principal discretion so that administrators can’t push out the higher needs kids in schools very far away from Ward 3.[/quote]

You could easily link the policy to at-risk eligibility to account for these situations. But thinking things through is beyond the abilities of DCPS central office. [/quote]

Homeless children have other legal rights defined in the enrollment handbook (homeless is somewhat broadly defined). Kids in those circumstances would not be governed by the policy OP is trying to game; they are governed by a more flexible policy.[/quote]

At risk =\= homeless =\= housing unstable. Tell me you’re from upper NW without telling me you’re from upper NW[/quote]
