[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So many Debbie Downers in this thread!!

OP— pick the schools in which you think your kids will thrive. Hillcrest is a great neighborhood where folks are used to commuting. You will most likely find people with whom you can carpool, because people in that neighborhood are generous and used to helping each other out. My best recommendation is to get off if DCUM (if you haven’t already) and get to know your neighborhood. You’ll see how it will all work out.[/quote]

I'm in Hillcrest. Older child attended Thurgood Marshall in Anacostia. It was a great school for their needs. One bus. Graduated during the pandemic. Younger child just finished a full run in the Capitol Hill Cluster Schools (Peabody, Watkins, SH) and is now headed to Banneker. The commute was fine, especially because I basically passed all three CHCS schools on my way to work. There are a lot of families with younger children in the neighborhood. There are listservs outside of DCUM where you might be able to connect with them and see what your options might be. Good luck. [/quote]
