The district is seeking over $63,000 in tuition for the first student’s post-disenrollment attendance, and a hearing officer sided with the district in the second case, forcing the teen to graduate later in New York. These rare cases highlight how residency rules can upend education — and families are fighting back. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
