Only secular? Location? Elementary only?
When we looked for secular elementary <$30k within 20 minutes of Burke we came up with Pinecrest, Montessori School of Northern Virginia, and Merritt. All are slightly over $20k though. Under that was only available in a religious setting. |

Then MSNV is probably out. It is Mr. Rogers level progressive. Too bad, it goes to 8th grade too. |

Montessori School of Northern Virginia. Montessori schools by definition have a progressive learning methodology. |

Strong academics under $20k with a high school? Not around here.
Heck, even Pinecrest is more than $20k for K-6. The Diocese of Arlington Catholic Schools will fit the bill, but high schools are separate. |

Westminster School is in Annandale. Elementary only I think. Curriculum is solid and old-school. They say "classical", meaning traditional in their case.

Not for under $20k. Beggars, choosers, etc etc. |

Religious schools, sure. Any of the catholic elementary schools should be in budget. Beyond that? No, you need $35k+ |
