[quote=Anonymous]I was very into the Hebrew component, but the commute was going to be tough. It's not terribly far, but it's the wrong direction. The families I know from synagogue who live in DC generally either live in upper NW and send their kids to the local public schools (which they presumably like for academic/social reasons and also the commute), send their kids to Hebrew day school, or send their kids to private secular schools. The families which don't have the money to do that (and we're in that group, certainly) mostly move out of the city. The families that leaves tend to be observant and less into the Hebrew thing. (In part because of the commute/distance issue - if you're very observant, you live walking distance to a synagogue, and if you live walking distance to a synagogue, you're not near Sela.) [/quote]
