Use peak ratings as eligibility for under sections at nationals.
Children's ratings should not be going down. This solves the problem and is easy to understand and enforce.

intermittent thoughts on my life and work as the chess coach at IS 318, a public middle school in Brooklyn

While I am very sympathetic to the complaint, I know that children's ratings are sufficiently volatile that this is not, applied blanketly, a reasonable answer..
Reasonable would be to see that this case is sufficiently questionable because of the group of players take as a whole, and to move them to a higher rated section.
