[quote=Anonymous]I'm on the fence about a school dilemma and wondered if anyone wanted to weigh in. We have a kindergartner and are moving locally March 1st. I need to decide whether to go to the new local school or drive back to the old address for the duration of the year. It is about 9 miles, and 15-20 minutes away, twice a day. Because of no-school days and other reasons, there are 50 days that we'd have to make the drive until the end of the year. Is it worth taking the kid out of their familiar environment to save all that time in the car? I'd also have my toddler with me in the car. I know many many people commute longer to schools every day, but we have a local choice, so it seems different. My kid is pretty adaptable, but I hate to make them be the new kid with the nervousness and insecurities getting to know a new house, new friends, and new school. Thoughts?[/quote]
