[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was going to say the same thing. Living close to the school is so helpful. Kid missed the bus, kid has a dentist appointment, “pick me up after the football game, it’s about to end,” back to school night, sports games, school plays, conferences, “I left my major assignment at home can you please bring it to me?”

The list goes on and on (and on!!). If your kid would be happy in any of those programs, pick the one where it will be most convenient for your family. [/quote]

Not only that:  there are so many days in high school when some but not all of the kids have a half day.  PSAT day: only 10th and 11th graders come in for the morning, 9th & 12th graders report after lunch.  AP exams: if you took a morning exam, you're excused from your afternoon classes or if you are taking an afternoon exam, you're excused from your morning classes.  But if you rely on a bus, you just sit around waiting for half the day unless your parent can pick you up. I am so grateful that my kids walk/bike to school so they can come and go according to whatever schedule the school is following that week.[/quote]
