[quote=Anonymous]Our family's story. Got in to Watkins OOB in upper elementary, and commute from another Ward in the city. Things that will/could change. VanNess reopens. Boundary study shifts boundaries. In bound schools improve. Schools are closed after boundary study. Fewer (or more) slots in PreS3 / PreK4. School within School locates near the home, giving you in bounds or geographic preference. Things I would pay attention to: How safe is the neighborhood? If you don't have physical safety with an infant(s)/ toddler(s) and are home alone, or kids home with nanny, that can be very uncomfortable. Concentrate on that phase for now. In some ways, better to buy in a so so neighborhood than buy in bounds for a good school and have a boundary realignment take that away from the home. Someone will be reassigned to less desirable schools, I predict. I probably would not pay a premium for an as of yet unconceived child. [/quote]
