| I am tired of all the pretentious parents in my area, and we are looking to move (still in Fairfax county.) Are there any schools where the people are generally nice, class sizes aren't outrageous (may be a lot to ask,) parents are friendly, and staff just loves the kids? Maybe I am holding onto an ideal that doesn't exist in this region... |
| Mount Eagle ES |
Any place that you don't belong to. |
| Kings Park/ Kings Glen |
| Small class size = Title 1 schools. |
| Shrevewood. The class sizes are creeping up, but the parents and teachers are great and very down to earth. |
| I read on here that Vienna has resisted the AAP crap. I'd start there. |
Maybe, but one of the reasons we're moving to private is for a sense of community. |
| West Springfield/Burke |
| Newington Forest in Springfield, has a ton of walkers and a nice community feel in a quiet, underrated area. |
| We really like the Mt Vernon/Ft Hunt area for sense of community. Every school has some issues but there are a number of good options in 22308 and 22307. |
| Ditto on ft hunt and waynewood. |
Small class size? No. Cliques? Yes. |
| We are very happy with Clermont. But our kid is in Kindergarten, so maybe we haven't exoerience the downside yet! |
| Parkersburg WV. Bye, OP! We don't like you either. |
