sensitive? My gosh, be realistic. If there are a couple hundred 'illegals' in the district either more schools would get closed down OR the district could reap some financial gain. I understand some people show a 'lease agreement' (with ink still wet) yet never fulfill it, but use it to get into the school system initially. What would be wrong or costly to have ALL parents or guardians SHOW proof each year? Legitimate residents shouldn't have difficulty providing the necessary documents. |

I heard about this guy too, Muffin. I brought it to their attention and was told the same thing. We know about it but it is a very touchy and sensitive subject. Purpose, Passion , Pride.........

It would certainly be easy enough. Employees have to show multple documents (birth certiificates, marriage licenses) when a company audits it's health insurance participants. |

I agree with you, if these out-of-city kids want to use our schools, they should pay tuition. It costs the residents of Livonia $$ to educate and bus these kids and they pay nothing towards it. It's only going to escalate as the Detroit school system continues to take a nose dive. If we require residency proof and we loose some of them so be it. Forget about "lease/rental" proof - require a utility bill for that address in that parent's name. I've also heard a "rumor" (I say that as I can't personally verify it) that some of these kids are brought in because of their "athletic" skills and are assisted by LPS personnel in gaining "residency" so they can attend our schools. Could this be the reason it's such a "sensitive" subject?? |
