[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To follow up on 9:45, I don't think many get how difficult the two-parent drop off and commute shuffle can be. Many of us who work on the west side of town or in Bethesda would love to drop off at a school close to the office and then have a short drive to work instead of dropping off close to home and slogging through traffic into work late. Think of those office towers in Friendship Heights. You don't think some people working there live in Virginia? How nice would it be to drop off at Janney or Murch and then head up the road?[/quote] I work there and can't imagine wanting my kid to go to a DC school. School is more than just 9-3...it's about community. The same kids in my daughter's class are also in her soccer, dance, theater classes...where we live. The same kids we run into at the Farmer's Market or at town celebrations, movie nights, etc. A little bit of convenience to avoid some stress at pick up - not a chance. You work where you end up working - you live where you want a home and community and that included school...[/quote]
