[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What happens if you move OOB within a week of the first day of school?

My partner was just told by a ward 3 elementary school that we have to be IB for 6 months (??) before they will let you finish the year there even if you move within DC. Seems arbitrary and there's nothing in writing about that.

I want to move out of our home asap (we literally just want to move to a neighborhood that's a 10 min walk) but we want our kid in this school.[/quote]

I don't think what you were told is the actual policy but as a practical matter, there's no real way for the school to know this anyway.  They verify residence upon (re)enrollment each year, there is no additional verification during the school year.  I suppose something might get mailed to your old address and then forwarded but even this wouldn't really be an issue, and everything is also sent via email anyway.  There is a very inefficient process for investigating residency fraud (meaning people who don't live in DC), there is no process for investigating boundary fraud,[/quote]
