It's not the commute, it's the fact that because they can't afford to live in DC, there own children go to neighboring districts, who are closed. DC is fortunate to have more public transportation options than suburban counties. My DS teacher text this morning to say she will not be in. DC residents don't want teachers children to be able to attend DCPS schools, but also want teachers to be available to them. It is pretty sad. Last year a highly effective teacher left our title 1 school for this very reason. [/quote] What stops them from seeking work in their own 'home' schools? I doubt they work in DC because of how fantastic the school environment is. They are working here because it pays a bit more, and need to accept that the closings, spring breaks, etc may not align with PG or Arlington Schools. I wonder if MoCo teachers complain about school opening in MoCo because they live in Frederick and schools there are closed

If I took an office job at Biglaw in Downtown DC, I'd expect very little accommodation when Loudon County has a slew of snow days, while DC is open for business.[/quote]
