I currently live in Alrington, VA and my daughter goes to Taylor Elementary Kindergarten and loves it. We are moving to DC in June and have to enroll her in first grade in a public elemenatry school and I have no idea where to start. She is terrified to switch as I am as well. We are going to be living in SE where the new developments are going up by the new stadium. Please if you have any information on good elementary schools and what the process is I would really appreciate it. Do you have to go to the school in your area or can I apply to other surrounding area schools?

Any information that anyone can offer would help a great deal, like I said I don't know much about the area. I am originally from Utah and have only lived out here a few years.

Thanks!!!!
