[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People wonder "why DAR" but no one actually complains about it.  Plus, after graduation, you have a plethora of restaurants to choose from for a celebratory lunch or dinner.  [b]For many MoCo families that don't come into the city much, it's a really special opportunity that is very memorable for them[/b].

If you object so much, then start talking to the school administrators, PTA, and student leaders when your kid is a freshman, but don't be surprised if there aren't very many people excited about your proposition.[/quote]

Okay, I'm a MoCo upcounty resident and have no issue with DAR except driving there during graduation does suck. We had a our graduation there when i was graduating HS. Now my kids will have it at Mt. St. Mary's.[b] I do find it funny though that one would think having it at DAR would be much more special (than other places) because we country bumpkins don't come to the city that much[/b]. Lots of us folks from MoCo have been going to DC since we were little kids! We're not coming from New Hampshire![/quote]

Sorry - I must have misinterpreted all the people over the years that my kids have graduated who have said, "this is really nice. We hardly ever come into DC anymore..."[/quote]
