[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The city probably cut them some slack over Covid. But now things are getting back to normal, including full-time in-person school with GDS parents and family staff dropping kids off all over the surrounding neighborhood in violation of the school’s agreement, they are requiring the school to comply[/quote]

It’s not normal or business as usual. Applicants multiplied, acceptance yields spiked and open private schools in the dmv blew out their numbers.

We were shocked how various communities here handled Covid and [/b]didn’t put children first, but here we go again. More of the same. What a community.

We have families in other states that had significantly more hours per week of in person school than here those days, in public and private schools.  Parents working remotely even subbed in various classes.  Can do attitude and made it happen.

Here people were zooming in to teach kids a couple hours a day and staying home. Politicians trying to shut any type of school down. [/quote]

So If I'm a neighbor I'm supposed to tolerate hundreds more cars whizzing by my front door and turning around in my driveway each day "for the children?"  Children who are paying $50K for school and certainly were about the least impacted by the pandemic of any in DC?

Sure.  No thank you. [/quote]

There are many communities, cities, states and countries that would prioritize children’s development and education over a 20 minute rush hour. 
Everyone in the world who lives near a school or office district or college or sports arena or whatever, successfully deals with this.

Only the truly selfish would keep more kids out of school so they can look out their window and not see kids arriving or departing school twice a day. That’s a special kind of special. [/quote]

What is wrong with you?? GDS is an elite private school for ppl who think they’re better than the community. Learn to not be so much of a snowflake. We don’t care about seeing cars. We care about cars that block our driveways, make us late to take our kids to school and are so self absorbed they think trivial things like no parking zones and red lights don’t apply to them.

Dude, what is wrong with you.?.[/quote]
