CRANSTON -- Mayor Stephen P. Laffey has ordered charges dropped against the Providence woman he had arrested earlier this month for sending her son to school illegally -- and has offered a brief amnesty period to encourage other students improperly in Cranston schools to head back to their home districts.
But after March 10, Laffey says that he will prosecute any parents whose children are subsequently found in Cranston schools -- and he’ll be sending Providence the bill for the cost of educating them in Cranston so far.
