My house is less than half a mile away from the school's district/zipcode border. The school she wants to attend is only 2 miles away. The school she is required to attend is over 4 miles away. The school is predominantly white so they have buses go to minority areas (which is an exception to the school's district/zipcode border rule), and some of these areas are 8-10+ miles away. I understand that, but I also feel that if my daughter was a minority (but she's not) maybe an exception would be made for her.
The school requires a copy of a mortgage or lease and a utility bill as proof of residence. I want to be up-front, legally and ethically, but if I'm too honest it will probably hurt me more than help me?
If I have to, I will rent a small apartment within the school's district, (that no-one will live in) just to have proof that I am renting within the school's district. I would just consider it as tuition, as the school she wants to attend is head and shoulders above the rest in this area.
I had no idea when I had my house built to even check into the schools in the area, but then again having kids was the furthest from my mind at that time also, lol.
Has anyone here ever dealt with this type of situation before?
TIA
