[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Things don't change a lot in MS for those of us who are committed to staying. We find ways to make a DCPS, charter, parochial or private school work. A few families even homeschool for MS to stay. MS is just a few years of our lives. Many of us are so non-plussed by the idea of being empty nesters in some blah suburb for decades that we dig in to stay.[/quote] Meh. My husband and I were of this mindset…but with schooling in the rear view (my youngest just graduated from Walls), Im not sure it was worth all the stress and $$ (tutors, private for 1 of my 2 kids) to remain on the Hill. We made it work given our privilege and lottery “luck”, but we have many many friends who moved to suburbs and they are very happy, many of whom are empty nesters. I’ve lived on the Hill since the early 90s and I do love it, but even I concede that we all would have probably adjusted and ended up happy in the burbs or far away from DC. [/quote]
