[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Regarding school buses, I have to say its great DC doesn't have them, and instead is prioritizing public transportation and neighborhood schools. Imagine the hellish morning commute we'd all have with a few hundred new buses making dozens of stops each![/quote]

The line of suvs that parks in front of Shepherd each morning, and personal experience leads me to believe that there are pretty much about twenty of us whose kids walk to school. The other 320 are driven.

I am all for public transportation, but believe me... but I've been using DC's for a while now, and it's got some major issues. (Sorry, to diverge from point of thread. I'll be quiet now.)[/quote]

I read "the line of SUVs" and I braced myself for more negativity (i.e., that this would be another poster griping about Maryland plates at DC schools)--glad it wasn't!  For the record, I'm one of the walkers to school, and I've never noticed MD plates at Shepherd. :)[/quote]

Ha! I was thinking the same thing. We are IB and still have to drive as the 7 block walk to and from would make me late for work. :)[/quote]
