[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These schools are maybe five minutes apart. I am not sure commute would be a deciding factor. These are both terrific schools. Our kids are at St. Pats and both love the school. We have a boy and a girl so can say the experience is terrific for either sex. I do wish St. Pats had uniforms that would be one thing to think about although I am overruled on this by my daughter. I also like the green space at St. Pats--it's a lot for a city school and their new field is amazing but we are a sporty family so playing fields are meaningful for us. I also like the 7th and 8th grade program at St. Pats-I wanted to avoid the girl drama and so far so good.[/quote]

Ha... five minute apart when....  on a Sunday morning at 3:00 a.m.?[/quote]

No need to be nasty. I commute to St. Pat's from the farthest east part of Chevy Chase & the part between NPS & St. Pat's is about 5 minutes, maybe 8  It is not a bad commute at all. As with all commutes, you find a route that works and, it becomes a routine. When we were applying, we were also choosing between St. Pat's & NPS. Staying untip 8th grade in the smaller setting was very important to us. I want that type of comfort zone for my kids during the middle school years. They are both lovely scchools, so you won't make a mistake no matter which way you go. Congratupations on getting this far![/quote]
