Jay Matthews has mentioned repeatedly that the great DC public elementary schools are jsut as good as the MoCo elementary schools. If you factor out white, economically advantaged, then your kids will be fine. It's more of a lifestyle question for me. Do you want to be in the city or not? Is it convenient for your jobs? 7th gr is very far away - you can move to Bethesda then should you not be able to afford private school. And, who knows - maybe DC will go the way of NYC by then and be a good choice for middle school
