[quote=Anonymous]What PP's are trying to explain, I think, is that end year schools (ES and MD) automatically send the list of students to the recieving school to get the process started. You still have to go there and "enroll" and prove residency, but your child is already on the books and in the system unless and until actively removed by someone processing the withdrawal papers, which have to be obtained by the parent, submitted to the new school, then sent to the old school by the new school. Let's just say, this doesn't always go smoothly. So, it appears that 20K kids didn't follow up on either the enrollment process or the withdrawal process, but are still on the books. Some are actually in school, some moved, some switched to private or online schools, some are truant.[/quote]
