 :roll: As  a middle school student in the early 80's our parent sent my sibs and I to NCS, Sidwell and STA in a a hired [b]van.[/b] We stopped to pick up a couple of girls from Immaculata and a few from one other all girls school in Bethesda, I think. We all lived in upper NW DC and our families were not rich, but comfortable. I recall my mom saing it was @ $100 a month. We only did it during the winter months, as I recall. The guy driving was ANCIENT. I don't think the parents worried about being left alone because all the kids had sibs. Someone should start something like that now! Although the insurance rates would be brutal. None of us suffered any emotional trauma from being picked up in a van, as far as I know.

I personally think this is brilliant.  We are trying to figure out how to make the distance to Bethesda work for us so our DD can attend the school I attended in Bethesda, although we live in NoVA.  I'm sure if we found enough parents between here and there with the same issue, it could work.

This is not outsourcing parenting as someone insinuated.  It's finding a solution for only having 24 hours in the day, 8 of which I need to be in the office so I can pay for that tuition.[/quote]
