[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To PP saying there are only parent run shuttles that is not true. A couple years ago we got into Bethune and they offered free transportation. Potomac Lighthouse also has a bus. I assume it is free. Stokes had a bus from the old location in NW to the new one in Brookland, then a van. This year it is being discontinued.

There are a LOT of charters in DC.  Ok, you know of ONE (Potomac Lighthouse) that has a shuttle that the school pays for (and I don't know a thing about their shuttle or if it's certain students it's set up to serve, I'm just taking your word for it).  Other than that, there are so many charters but no other school-funded shuttles.  It would be a huge, giant, ridiculous mistake to assume that for the parents that this commute is impossible for, the school will provide/can provide a shuttle from a more convenient area.  If SS pulls that off awesome.  But it's unusual and not something anyone should count on the school providing.

I hope the school DOES find a way to do that, because of the number of parents I know will not make it to the new site.  But there is no reason to think it's likely... at all.[/quote]
