[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Without getting into Wakefield vs. Yorktown or other options, Arlington will currently let you do this for free. If you are about to be at the high school years, you can just apply to transfer and have your DC transported to Yorktown.

https://www.apsva.us/school-options/high-school-choices/ - and check the waiver, neither Wakefield nor Yorktown is close to 120%. No guarantees about five years from now. [/quote]

That sounds like an awesome option, your child can spend an excessive amount of time traveling to and from school every day, and then be no where near his friends during non-school hours.[/quote]

Hey retard. Arlington is 26 square miles. No one is commuting all day anywhere. [/quote]

Wow, classy. I didn't say anything about all day, I said "excessive." How long do you think it's going to take that bus to meander all through the Wakefield zone to bring kids to and from Yorktown every day, as opposed to the time it would take to get straight to and from Wakefield? I wouldn't be too keen on my child spending 1.5-2 hours on the bus every day. After all, it's not like the Yorktown kids are going to be hauling themselves to south Arlington all the time to give their friends rides home.[/quote]
