@MWN thanks for posting the rule, but do you see my concern with private schools and families abusing the rule? I wonder if posters from the OC are seeing the same issue?
I guess when my ds was playing, the rule allowed underprivileged kids to attend private schools on scholarships. Unfortunately it is now being used for the privileged that know how to get around the rule.
When my sons were playing youth soccer, I was approached by representatives of 2 different private high schools informing me of their schools' excellent academic records, low-cost transportation to/from, and remarked that if the price seemed too high that arrangements could be made. I suppose it was just by accident that both representatives were soccer coaches.
