This article discusses the diminishing role that residency will play in deciding where children will have access to public education in the future. Using New Hampshire, Colorado, and Florida as examples, the author explains how factors such as school choice, education litigation, technology, and the global economy have combined to make residency less relevant in determining where children have access to public education. The author concludes that this new era, where residency is less relevant to educational access, presents an opportunity for New Hampshire and other states to reform their educational systems to better prepare students for the challenges of a global economy.
