But, OP IS paying rent in bounds of the school. That's what I don't understand about this argument. OP's not lying about having a place there - they pay DC income taxes, pay rent on a place IB for the school, just like everyone else.

Choosing to sleep in a different location, also owned by OP, doesn't really seem on par with stealing Jimmy Choo's.

Lying about renting a place there (e.g. some people's suggestion to change your address for your pay stubs) is a different issue. But, the OP is going to actually pay rent in the zone, the same as thousands of other people. [/quote]

Exactly. What about the people who have joint custody and their child lives outside school bounds half of the week? What about people with weekend homes who spend two nights a week in a different house? Is there some requirement that you have to literally sleep X nights per week in bounds?

Conflating this with lying about DC residency illustrates a serious lack of logical reasoning; it's a completely different situation. One is residency (and probably tax) fraud, one is a questionable interpretation of DCPS boundary policies. [/quote]

I have joint custody and asked about this. I was told that if we wanted to send her to the school in his boundary, he would have to show up with the residency verification documents and if we were sending her to the school in my boundary, I had to go. As it is, we send her LEGALLY OOB to another school, and I was told that it didn't matter which of us showed up as long as we could verify DC residency.

As for your other questions, I suspect that those things are probably defined somewhere as to what constitutes a primary residence. It didn't sound like the OP or the other cheaters were talking about moving to a place, for the school week or otherwise, but renting a place and just using the address.

Unrelatedly, I'd be curious to hear what the OP and the other cheaters would be doing with the apartment in question, since they weren't planning to live there.[/quote]
