[quote=Anonymous]We are one of a few families at Oyster who also were at MV (various grade levels). One of the benefits for us of attending Oyster has been the very local community as it is mostly a neighborhood school. After having spent multiple years at HRCS commuting for work and school, underappreciated the benefits of having kids friends as neighbors, walking the two blocks to school. With MV, you might luck into that if you move into areas with high density of MV families (eg. Cap Hill, Mt. Pleasant, Eckington) but most likely will still require driving- and sometimes scrambling on snow days. If you are thinking of trying out MV with Oyster as a backup, I would also add testimony that as resilient as kids are ... transitions can be tougher than we as parents realize. Look at the school cultures, your kids learning styles and personalities, and make a decision based on that as well. Good luck with whatever decision you make! [/quote]
