[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - No, I meant parents organizing and paying for a bus through the PTA. Granted, I have no idea how much it costs.  We are waitlisted at multiple schools, and we haven't bought a place yet.  Unfortunately, I lotteried for schools too far away from where we now realize we can get the best bang for our buck. The inbound schools aren't too great.  Our options now seem limited to bus, or a painful commute for a year and doing lottery again next year hoping for a good number.[/quote]

What you are asking for doesn't exist at any DC public school. As noted above, a very few charters have them and the ones that do are mentioned.

And yes, the commuting pain is real. But the bus may not be as bad as you anticipate - you could try it out now and if it's a no-go for you, remove yourself from the wait list now.

However, for SY 20-21 so much will be done online, that commute won't matter so much. Best case your kid will be in their school building 50% of the time. The city's Phase 3 guidelines anticipate A/B schedules and a max of 10 students in a classroom, with 6 feet of distance between them, until a vaccine exists. Maybe that changes, but I do not expect it to.[/quote]
