[quote=Anonymous]I am trying to figure out how to rank inspired teaching. We loved the school, teachers, principal, parents. It could be our #1 choice except for (of course) the new location. We are in Adams-Morgan and are applying for PK3. I am wondering for those who have done this before if you can give some advice. We could drive there, but my husband and I both work downtown so it is in the opposite direction. I think that would mean driving there, parking, and walking with a three-year-old to the school, then driving home, parking, and taking the bus in. I'm concerned that this is going to get real old over time. If it were on our way into work and/or on the Metro, I would feel a lot better about it.

People have said there will almost certainly be a parent-run bus from Adams-Morgan. This sounds appealing, especially in the later grades, but I have two concerns. One is whether I can put a three-year-old on a bus every day. I don't know whether there will be other parents on board, or whether I could accompany my toddler on board on a semi-regular basis. The other is whether the bus will continue in future years.

So, I am in the position of wondering whether I should put some of our neighborhood schools or some of the schools in downtown, like Francis-Stevens, over IT. I would love any advice from others. People  have told me that proxmity should not be under-valued.[/quote]
