[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it odd how dismissive people are of the prospect of driving all the way across the park to get to a public school. This makes no sense to me - one of the major selling points of public school is its convenience. We're a Lafayette family and love the school, though we are switching to private for various reasons. But we live within two blocks of Lafayette and I can say with 100% certainty that I would not use a school that's a 10-15 minute drive in the wrong direction (i.e., away from my office, which is downtown). I don't need or want any extra time commitments in the morning before work. I recognize that in this case it means the school didn't get extra space, but a solution that is extremely inconvenient is not really a solution at all, and dismissing this legitimate logistical concern as snobbery or prejudice shows lazy thinking.[/quote] High maintenance.[/quote]
