Imagine home buying budget was no barrier... what, to your mind, is the most ideal public school pyramid in Nova?
NOT asking what you think is the best ranked/most prestigious. Asking for personal opinions about schools you'd like to send your children to (or currently do) and why. |
Robinson. Nice low key neighborhood and school.
|
Marshall or Meridian. Love IB and good sports (in that order). |
One that isn’t located in Montgomery County, MD.
+1 on Meridian. |
Washington-Liberty, which is where my kids go.
Love the teachers, love that the student demographics most closely align with Arlington's, love IB. |
Madison. AP. Lots of options for courses at all levels. Great community. |
We are zoned for Wakefield (Arlington) and I gotta say I’m happy with that. We didn’t consider schools when buying and it’ll be years before my kid goes to school, but I have only heard good things and I don’t regret buying in this pyramid.
Kid #1 is at HBW though and I assume will stay there through high school. |
We are also zoned for Wakefield and I hear nothing but positives too. I think my kid is a good candidate for IB though so we may try for that. |
Look at the responses, save for Wakefield |
Rent free |
Meridian, FCCPS, which is where we live. Kids are in lower elementary now and we love it. |
We are also zoned with Wakefield and I am happy with that. Otherwise I think my kid could do really well at Thomas Jefferson, but I am not sure I want that kind of stress for him. |
JMHS. Living the dream. |
Whitman |
Zoned for Wakefield HS and our kids are v happy and thriving there. But since you're asking about the whole pyramid, I'd find a way to skip Gunston if possible. |
