Harbor Liveabords

[pfd103]

My wife and I have been toying with the idea of living aboard a sailboat for several years now, and it seems like we've got a window of opportunity in the next few years. If things go well, we could possibly be on a boat as soon as the spring of 2014 or 2015. The slight catch is that we now have a baby. We've researched raising children on boats for more than a year now, and it's something we're interested in trying out. Right now we're only intending to liveaboard for 5-7 years, moving back to land for the middle and high school years.

So the question is...If we live aboard with a child, can they attend Baltimore City public schools? Does Baltimore City recognize liveaboards as city residents (there are hundreds in the harbor right now...so they really should)?

Baltimore City itself has so little information available online (on this subject), so I thought I'd reach out to everyone to see if someone can provide a little insight.
