The Baumans petitioned the Norwich School Board to admit their children as paying nonresident students after school Superintendent Ken Greenbaum asked them this summer to submit a sworn affidavit affirming their Norwich residency, Greenbaum said.
The Baumans’ case is an example of the difficulty school officials can face in trying to establish a family’s residency in districts such as Norwich, which has a school system prized for a low student-teacher ratio and high student test scores.
If a family unjustifiably claims residency status in Norwich, the town would miss out on tuition money for their children, while their true hometown would miss out on the state education aid distributed according to the number of students enrolled in its schools.

Norwich substitute teacher Julie Amero clearly was wrong to access several pornographic Web sites on her computer at Kelly Middle School.
Amero, 40, of Windham, would appear to be an unlikely person to expose children to the lurid images she called up on the classroom computer.
That said, this must be a wake-up call for school districts and administrators, who need to ensure that all computers have the proper filters so that a potentially dangerous Web site is not accessible; who need to ensure that substitutes are monitored and managed well; and that children are protected in every other way.
