[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the issue is that there aren't as many options for elementary age kids in Arlington instead of extended day.  My impressions is that in fairfax, there are a lot of daycares/after school centers that exist if you don't get into sacc.  In arlington, there's only maybe two other options, or getting an au pair/nanny/babysitter.  The discrepancy is because up until a few years ago, extended day was guaranteed, so there wasn't a huge demand for daycare for elementary age kids.  [/quote]

There are at least four different after care buses at my sons ES during pickup, that is off the top of my had, I am probably under counting. We signed up when my son was a rising Kindergartner and thought the process was ridiculous. It was first come first serve and I only knew when to sign up because a friend warned me. I think each school had a different day to prevent crashes. We got morning care but not after care. We did not take the morning care and ended up not needing the after care because we were able to adjust our work schedules.
