[quote=Anonymous]OP here… I don’t have a pattern of poor choices. I am a single mother who works from home and has the means to pay for private transportation if needed. I also have college aged children so finding a 4/5 bedroom rental in some of the named areas was difficult if not impossible without spending 10k a month or more. While I may not have purchased in my desired area I am happy with my choice, I do recognize it provides some challenges for my school aged children. My oldest is a free spirit who is sensitive and artsy. She has plans to enter a trade right out of high school, she’s on grade level and finished 9th grade with a 3.6 she is excited to navigate the city, it’s mama who is worried about that commute. My youngest is a project based learner, social butterfly and cannot tolerate yelling and negativity. She loves being outside, learning new things and is crafty. She plays tennis, crochets and plays 2 instruments. I have a couple of close friends who live in NE and can get the little one from Stokes at a moments notice. The way I see it unless you live in Georgetown, it’s not that greys to navigate. We have a couple of options… I can move my oldest to Sojourner Trith so both can be in Brookland I can move my youngest to Thomson so it’s “on the way” I can keep watching my waitlist numbers to see if they move as well. One of my employees has a close family member who attends eastern is in the IB and speaks highly of it(they are a white upper middle class family) I don’t know enough about Randle for my youngest to attend but I hear great things about beers.
