[quote=Anonymous]If you stay in DCPS you have to commit the time. I have always said staying in the city allowed me to put the time I might commute to where ever towards volunteering at school. However I am not sure that worked out we have a30 minute commute from Brookland to Eaton each way and it can be stressful if we leave even more than 5 minutes late to get through Columbia Heights. I also think you have to have a sense of humor and flexibility if you stay in the city because there too often when you have to laugh or cry. Finally if you have a kid with a learning issue you may have to commit to moving out of the city because DCPS special education really as bad they say and the charters are even worse. I know people that just can't roll with it and it did make sense for them to move to Arlington or MoCo but if you have some personal flexibility you can make it work. [/quote]
