[quote=Anonymous]If you will need to do the driving - i.e., there is no public or school-provided back-up - that's a lot and leaves precious little margin of error. That said, I was really surprised how far some kids traveled to the private schools in NW DC, and I admire that level of commitment and value placed on the school. This debate rages every year on the MD School Forum (and I'm in others for similar situations) because of the long bus-rides for the MS magnets in MoCo; some kids have 90 minute "commutes" to school on the MCPS-provided buses. We're debating between one and (if our DC gets accepted) hopefully a much closer private school. I agree with an earlier poster who said it might seem bearable for a year or so, but 4+ years may be tough.[/quote]
