<p>All,</p>
<p>Thanks for your reply comments to my post #69. I don’t know if it’s the wine or not, but I feel better now. :)</p>
<p>Seriously, your comments reassure me that the apparent socio-economic gap can be a minor issue to a student at BS.</p>
<p>I have another topic to discuss but I believe I need to find the appropriate thread. That topic is: I’d be interested to obtain your opinions of how far in miles, and how long in time on a daily basis do you think it would be reasonable to drive your 9th grader to high school? At what point does the distance and time one-way become too great? Surely, at some point, it becomes excessive and therefore a disservice to the student because of lost time? For example, a 30 minute drive, or 45? How about 1 hour and 15 minutes each way? The reason I ask is that our local day school choice is 1 hour and 15 minutes each way. That is why the concept of boarding school has surfaced. Thoughts?</p>
