[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure how the proof of residency can be reasonably tweaked. Pay stubs and utility bills + a DC license are on the list of acceptable documentation.

Can't the rule specify that that[b] pay stub[/b] or utility bill [b]must include the address of the residence[/b]?  That's what I had to provide for my driver's license renewal. So I could not use my cell phone bill but I could use my gas bill.[/quote]

My federal government agency does not provide your residence address on your pay stub. It does however show DC taxes taken out, but w/o an address how do you prove your IB status? [/quote]

Residency and IB status are too distinct things.  Under current law, it's not at all clear if falsifying your IB status is even illegal, if you are a DC resident.[/quote]

I'm willing to bet that you could make a good dent in the overcrowding problem at Deal, in particular, if you weeded out all of the fake in-boundary claims. Funny how many well-off families whose kids were at Key, Stoddert, and Mann magically end up at Deal for middle school despite Deal not accepting any out-of-boundary, non-feeder students. Should be allowable for Deal to identify families whose children went to non-feeder schools and then attempt to seek extra verification that they are actually living in-boundary instead of using someone else's address, using an address for an apartment that they own but rent out to someone else, or sitting on a vacant in-boundary efficiency apartment.[/quote]

Is this an up to date claim? That this new school year in Deal there are many families that fit this description? Or are these comments referring blindly to several years ago...[/quote]
