OP, if you were talking to me about this at a party, I would ask: what do you plan to do if this doesn't work?
How would it not work? What could happen?
You unenroll your child.
MCPS says ok.
You try to reenroll your child at Blair.
MCPS says no, that's not how it works, your child will be enrolled at the previously-assigned DCC school (not Blair).
Then what would you do?
Also, how long would your child be unenrolled, and what will your child do for school during that time?

Don’t unenroll your child. You aren’t guaranteed to get Blair when you reenroll. Just wait until January.

Your "home school" is the DCC.
No, the home school is Blair which is part of the DCC.
No, it's not. Blair is the "base school."
https://www2.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/school-info/downcounty/choice/detail
If you put an address in the DCC into the MCPS school assignment tool, what you get for the high school assignment is: "DCC ([base school])" - where [base school] is the name of whichever of the 5 DCC high schools the address is in the base area of.
Base school and home school mean the same thing.

What rules? Yours?
Home is in Blair area. Blair is home school. Families aren’t tied to past addresses.
DP. MCPS's rules. For enrollment in the DCC. Home is in the DCC area.

Home is Blair that’s why it is listed.

The registrar does not that power if a DCC school. You must go through the Consortia with appropriate paperwork.
--former registrar, DCC
As a former registrar, do you think there’s anything I can do in this situation? Thank you

What did you email them saying? Also, was this a DCC school or another school within MCPS? Thank you
