[quote=Anonymous]DC has been accepted at a fantastic school, perhaps our "dream" school in terms of pedagogy, size, facilities, culture, etc. The only wrinkle is the location - it's completely on the other side of town (we live in DC). A major logistical plan would have to be devised to make it workable. Both DH and I have fairly intense jobs, with DH having little flexibility in terms of doing drop off and pick up. Of course, down the road, if we love the school but hate the commute, we would be open to moving closer to the school, but not at least for a few years. Plus, we really like our current neighborhood and would miss it. DC right now attends our neighborhood school, which we walk to. It is fine for what it is - its major strength is that the community is tight-knit because most of the families live within blocks of each other. But realistically, it's probably not the best fit for DC in the long run. If we decline the school we were admitted to, we'll stay at our current school for K. I'm looking for sage advice here. What have others done in this situation?[/quote]
