[quote=Anonymous]I did something similar and enrolled the kids in the charter for a few years. I regret the decision. The stress and hours spent in the car trying to get End of Day pick up and then still have another 20 + minutes to get home. Neighborhood friendships trump all others. On snowdays, my kids at out with friends - when we were with the charter it was not the same feel. There is a different type of relationship when you see the families walking to and from school, in the neighborhood, at the park etc. Neighborhood school enables spontaneity as it is easier to say yes to playdates and events. As your child gets older independence as they walk to and from school by themselves. Or head out on their bicycle to a friends house.[/quote]
