Nice new buildings, schools aren’t gigantic in size, a lot fewer ESOL and also fewer annoying high income folks who take up all the air in the room. The schools have a lot more of a community feel. I wish we could live out there but it would be way too much of a commute for us.

Distant second would be like the Arlington schools, then maybe Falls Church?

I only read bad things about FCPS.

MCPS is not that good anymore. It has been slipping.

Great Schools changed how they rate schools. Now, those ratings are fairly meaningless.
