Whichever is the easier commute for you.

What is the plan for reopening breakthrough? Or Lee for that matter.

We've had a great couple years at Breakthrough and are heading back next year. We have friends who have been really happy at Lee. I think you've got a choice between two great options!

Interesting take. I honestly don't see much chatter about either school on DCUM (for better or for worse).

I would go based on commute as well.

They seem relatively even to me. I’d choose the one that was closer to home.

We are at Lee and really like it and would definitely recommend. But I have always heard good things about Breakthrough (we have some acquaintances there who seem very invested). If all other things are equal I agree that it probably makes sense to give the nod to Lee for being more established. But if you get a better vibe at Breakthrough for some reason, you probably won't go wrong?

Lee being more established, always a good thing. But that’s the only reason.

Yes if only for the outdoor space and the existing upper elementary classrooms already being in place. I think highly of both.

If you were in the position to attend, would you select one school over the other? Commute times being just about equal.
