Gotta disagree. While generically similar, at that time of morning you are talking an exponential impact to the commute in increments of 5 to 10 minutes jumps.



Look at Google maps. Most of these schools are less than a mile from each other. Gds is a little further at about 2 miles from the others. If youre coming from Vienna I don't think the difference btw sidwell and maret in terms of your commute will be exponentially different. The best thing to do would be to see if there's a critical mass of other Vienna folks at the school so you can carpool.


I drive from GDS to Maret every day during rush hour and it takes at least 15 minutes. So being 1 mile apart doesn't matter, they have a very big difference in commute times.


like I said, GDS is the outlier at 2 miles away. The rest of them are really really close to each other - less than 1 mile.
