[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the posters who keep asking people re: why no MV - as someone who lives near MV, and has to drive by there daily, I can tell you the commute can be....challenging. [/quote] I tried the commute there which initially was ok, maybe 12 min driving but then another 10min circiling for parkng which I would have to find to walk my DD into classroom. The real bitch was having to get on NY avenue afterwards. I figured getting there in the evening for pick up would be ten times worse. I loved the open house but am kind of relieved there are no spots in PS3 this year so I can take it off my list and not think twice.[/quote] If you live on the other side of NY/FL and plan on driving - I'm not sure how you can make this commute work. As someone who lives in this neighborhood, I DO appreciate that they are not doing a drop off in front of the school, but as someone who attends a different charter that I drive cross town for - I feel bad when I see parents driving around looking for spots. [/quote] MV does have a drop off lane in front of the school. It is also a convenient location for bus commuters as there is a bus stop for several popular routes just a block away. When I take the 92 bus with my kids it is packed with MV tshirts. I walk to work from there (30 min to the Verizon center).[/quote] \Drop off is only allowed for K and higher. PS parents much park and walk their kids into classroom. Which is fine but parents need to account for a lot of extra time to find parking, walk a three year old etc.[/quote]
