[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the OP - carpooling isn't realistic in our situation, fwiw. It would probably just make things more complicated given the direction we're coming from, where we work etc. Unlikely to find a lot of overlap with other parents.[/quote] OP, what's the marginal increase in your drive distance by adding the school? In other words, how many miles is your round-trip commute to work without the school, as compared to how many miles with the school?[/quote] I've done the mileage again. Adding the school gives us a round-trip commute of approximately 25 miles. Choosing an alternate option (or moving) could reduce the commute to closer to 16 miles, although if we moved the commute would take us on some roads with pretty heavy traffic (so it's not clear exactly how much we will benefit time-wise by the reduced mileage, although we would definitely benefit somewhat).[/quote]
