[quote=Anonymous]Or, like other schools, they are limited by the inability to find and afford decent school spaces sitting directly on a metro line. I'm guessing there are bus lines that would get folks closer than the metro. I believe Inspired Teaching and Mundo Verde are also moving to locations that are not as metro accessible as their current locations. And the new Cap City location isn't exactly ideal for public transportation either. I agree that walking that far with a 3 year old isn't ideal, but the reality is that these are elementary schools, folks, so the schools have to make decisions that aren't just about our 3 and 4 year olds....eventually, the 5-10 year olds at these schools will greatly outnumber the PS/PK kids. All this to say, I think tying this to some assumption the school isn't considering the importance of being metro/bus accessible b/c it doesn't care about families that rely upon public transportation is unreasonable. From what I can tell, pretty much all schools are concerned about being as accessible as possible to public transportation-- many of the teachers rely on public transportation as well.[/quote]
