[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You guys keep bitching about this residency fraud. Obviously OSSE has better things to do then follow up on this issue. DC schools are flush with money, so trying to consistently chase mostly middle to low income, mostly minority parents is not worth it economically. I recall seeing an internal report that notes that pursing these offenders generally costs more than what they would even collect in penalties/taxes, if they even collect it at all.

Shit, you have DC employees themselves doing it. [b]Is it fair to young white families that now occupy various quadrants of DC?[/b] No. But its also unfair that living in the city that the city has become unaffordable for many, and many have been displaced by greedy landlords and developers. Is it legal, no. But life is not fair. So get over it.

Since many of you seem like go getters, maybe you could create your own residency fraud parent task force. Then you could gather evidence and put together your own cases to present to the city. That would be a great use of your time instead of wasting your energy posting the same shit on multiple threads.

It's most unfair to disadvantaged (largely black/Hispanic) kids in DC whose parents, or more likely single parent/grandmother, play by the rules and were unsuccessful in getting a slot in a better school -- because the scamming parent(s) of some kid from Maryland basically snuck in and stole it.[/quote]
