Sorry but this makes my blood boil. Why don't you be sarcastic somewhere else?
This is actually a very upsetting situation for families.
More than half of the student population travels 45 minutes to an hour and 30 minutes EVERY SINGLE DAY to get to St Ann's. 
The public schools in their area are not good, and the likelihood of their child receiving the education they deserve, will not happen. Many of these parents are exhausted working two jobs trying to get their children a better education so they can be successful in whatever they set their mind to do. 
St Ann's not only helps students academically, but it helps them grow and flourish. 
Some of these children have needs that will not be met in DCPS, and it will manifest itself into internal dislike of going to school every morning.

SO next time, try to have some compassion. [/quote]

I see your point. Maybe they can take their vouchers though to a different parish school that is closer to their homes?  I'm going to assume these homes are in PG county and NE-SE dc. (based on what I know from my teacher friend at St Ann's ). I see a lot of little parish schools along the pg-dc border area. Hopefully many of them will be welcoming. [/quote]
