[quote=Anonymous]The bus is way, way easier than driving to campus and dropping off or picking up. At every school, pick up lines can be very long. The bus saves a huge amount of time and hassle, and also reduces traffic in the area at the same time. It's even better when the kid can take Metro to and from school (if you live anywhere near a Metro station or can drive to one easily), or walk or bike (if you live close enough). DC resident students get a Kids Ride Free to take the Metro for free, and non-DC residents get some kind of subsidized card as well that I think GDS pays for. For us, the many transportation options GDS offers, which enable us not to have to drive to Tenleytown twice a day and wait in long lines, was a big plus.[/quote]
