[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have 40’ drive which is an hour with traffic. Kids do homework in the car. [/quote] This is not at all uncommon among DC area private schools; a lot also have buses/shuttles. Many people manage just fine. +1 to homework in the car. I think the thing that's harder is the social aspect; having friends who may live more than an hour away can be tough. But again, people make it work. [/quote] +1. We live in deep in Loudon county and traveled to Bethesda from 2nd-12th grade. DD hated that we didn’t live close to her friend groups. Purchased her a car the day she turned 17, to hopefully make up for the years of misery. I will say, those long drives were great for conversations about all sorts of things, made us closer. [/quote]
