[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I value ease of commute a ton and have a personal preference for ITS too, but I would NOT let a year of bad construction-related traffic be the deciding factor on the best elementary school for a child.[/quote] OP. I agree completely. The commute was not the deciding factor. But it was a factor. In the end we tried driving (10 min), walking (40 min.) and taking the bus (20 min) to DC bilingual. None were perfect but all were fine. Part of the problem is that the DC Bilingual security guard stops traffic for far longer than is necessary. The city needs to assign a crossing guard so that the Ned's of all citizens are meant. The security guard is stopping traffic primarily to get cars in and out of the driveway rather than primarily to guard pedestrians crossing. The only way to reasonably get to Inspired Teaching is by driving. So far it has taken from 9-13 mins depending on traffic. And the drive feels like a breeze as it is a NE to NE N/S commute.[/quote]
