When can a tenant stay in a rental unit if there are school-aged children, and what conditions apply?

• A. End of the calendar year.
• B. End of the lease term.
• C. End of the school year (Sept 1 to June 30) if the child is under 18 and attends a school near the rental unit.
• D. When the child turns 18.

Answer: (C)

This question centers on how schooling can affect tenancy timelines. When there is a school‑aged child in the rental, the tenancy may extend to the end of the school year to avoid disrupting the child’s education. The end of the school year is treated as Sept 1 to June 30 for this purpose, and the protection applies only if the child is under 18 and attends a school near the rental unit. This is why the best choice is that the tenant can stay until the end of the school year under those conditions. The other options don’t account for the schooling factor or the proximity requirement, so they don’t fit.
