If you're okay with someone stealing your tax dollars and short hanging your child, then so be it.

Report it to OSSE but PLEASE stop posting new threads here. It serves no purpose. If you want to be applauded for your "good deed", go read the 3 gazillion threads that have already been created on this topic. Sheesh!!!!

OP here.
I know the PG county (yes, it's PG) address and phone number for this family (via simple google search). I know they don't live in the DC house because I am friends with the people who own the house!
It appears these cheaters picked an address out of the phone book and it worked (so far).
I will keep emailing and calling until this is resolved.
I hate this kind of deception.

Shut up! The only person who needs to stop is you, idiot.


I mean, I made a valid point, though. How do we know that the parent actually lives in DC but has MD registered tags? How do we know that the child actually belongs to a legal guardian who lives in DC? How do we know that these people's permanent address isn't a DC address, but they are temporarily living elsewhere? These are all things that have to be considered before you just go telling on people.


The poster who claims to be a PG resident who got a spot in a DC charter appears to be concerned about people looking into residency. I wonder why?


I am the PP who is a PG resident. I am not the PP who is challenging OP about looking to the residency. I simply said that MD consists more of MoCo to the PP who said that a MD resident shouldn't be interested in DCPS MoCo has good schools.

You do realize that MD is not JUST MOCO, right? PG is just as close and I'd bet that if there is truly a MD family there, they are from PG.

Don't take the bait. Please.


14:10 here. Forgot to add that we are able to prove DC residency. We aren't crazies who just played the lottery with a made-up address.


You can't prove DC residency without violating DC law in the event you are actually a resident of PG County. You can be a resident of two different jurisdictions supimultaneously. You may not consider your self a crazy, but you are nevertheless a thief engaging in an act of criminal fraud.

I think all the naysayers are trying to get across is just don't jump to conclusions.

A friend of my childs got called on 4-5 times during a semester she was mainly staying with her grandmother because her mother was going through intensive chemo and as a family they all stayed at the childs grandparents house/mothers parents house. They lived in the appropriate district but when people say the grandmas car all the time at pick up with the wrong license plate they would call. I felt so bad for the mother and child because they were really trying to keep things low key and it turned into anything but.


Thank you! We do realize that people do have cars registered in different states, right? People don't always change things over (for their own personal reasons). I know of several DC residents who have MD/VA registered cars, and MD residents who have DC registered cars. We don't know 100% about people's personal lives and I don't think it's up to us to try to figure it out.
