WWYD? Two rivers or Lee

Anonymous
We got into Lee for PK-3 and have a very low WL # for Two rivers. I love the idea of Montessori but have heard for a long time Two Rivers is amazing. If 2 rivers called, what would you do? We live in upper EOTP NW so commute will be a trek regardless... Though Two Rivers is walking distance from the metro.
I'm leaning staying at Lee but intrigued at WWYD?

I'd take Two Rivers. I think it's everybody's dream school. Lee might be great but it's untested.

BTW, what are your waitlist numbers elsewhere?

Two Rivers. Not even close. I like the concept of Montessori, and thing the Lee leadership is strong based on my interactions with their team, but I like the through 8 option, I like the permanent space, and I like the known entity of TR.

I would argue TR on the better commute, particularly if you are Metroing. Rhode Island Ave (which I use daily) is so hit or miss if you are driving. Some days 12 minutes to downtown, some days 62 minutes.

OP here. Thanks everyone! We're in the 30's for MV, which we would take in a heart beat, but I'm not liking my odds there vs TR. And, it's also pretty far downtown. In the mid 20's at Shephard but I think I have less of a chance there than anywhere!

Anyone make the commute to TR currently from upper NW?

Two Rivers - Go with proven.

OK - so where do you think Lee is going to get space 2 years from now?

Do you think it could be worse than 2 Rivers? I know it is a huge crap shoot - but think about where the open space is. Look where charters have moved over the last 5 years. What spaces were vacated - who moved in behind them etc.
