Relocation help needed in housing and schooling

It is 45mins from ABQ to DHA. Aramco provides buses through out the day for people/employees needing or wanting to go to the other Aramco compounds. Buses do leave in time for the employee to get to work on time. You'll find out all about it in orientation. Buses are Grey Hound types - just different brand.

Some people choose to drive their own cars to DHA. Personal choice.

Housing in DHA is not always an option. Never hurts to ask, recently some RT residents were moving into DHA because they work in DHA; but they'd been in RT for a few years.

The schools here are used to students coming in at all times of the year. The schools started a preschool program this year. Don't know the rules for preschool, but your child would probably be enrolled immediately. If you're here first, you'll have time to call or visit the principal and check it out for sure prior to your family arriving.
