And the proof is where? The appropriate laws governing residence are? Maybe it's because I sold copiers but I live in a black and white world. So in the words of Sgt. Joe Friday, "Just the facts please"

Since the PA Code was written before the concept of chartered cyber schools, you won't find explicit language on it. But here are the relevant sections on status for in-state tuition at state colleges:

§ 82.1 Domicile—A place of residence at which a person intends to remain for an unlimited time and which the person considers to be the person’s permanent home.


§ 35.29b (a) (4) A United States government employe or a member of the armed forces who was domiciled in this Commonwealth immediately preceding entry into government service, and who continuously maintained legal residence in this Commonwealth, shall be presumed to have domicile. Others in government service may, by convincing evidence, establish domicile.

§ 507.3 (4) A United States government employe or a member of the armed forces who was domiciled in this Commonwealth immediately preceding entry into government service and who has continuously maintained Pennsylvania as his declared legal residence, shall be presumed to have a Pennsylvania domicile. Nonresidents stationed in this Commonwealth for military service shall be deemed Pennsylvania domiciliaries.

If he's registered to vote, still has his PA drivers license, and is paying state/local taxes, then he's a resident, and his kids are eligible. Shouldn't be any more difficult than that just because his "job" is in DC.

His kids went to a Pennsylvania Cyber Charter school. While the taxpayers in the district (Penn Hills) where his empty house was picked up the tab.

Something about family value.

What exactly are you trying to refute?

Santorum withdrew his kids from the Charter School. The State of PA reimbursed the school district.

You apparently don't get the concept of someone in government service being able to maintain their primary residence.

Does anyone care one way or the other? Watching the flood of Romney attack ads where this is not mentioned I would say no. Anyone who would take issue with it probably was'nt going to vote for him anyway.
