[quote=Anonymous]Schools across FCPS reflect the economic levels of their students' families.  And the economic level of the families is represented by the cost of the housing that is built in an area (more or less).

There are no apartments in the Island Creek zone, so it tends to have the highest economic data (i.e. the lowest percentage of kids needing free or reduced priced meals).  Hayfield ES's housing stock is lower priced.  Both Lane and Hayfield ES have some apartments in their zones.  Lane has some lower income housing units.  HOWEVER, your child can get a good education at all of them, as well as at schools like Franconia and Springfield EStates (this is the AAP center for Lane, Hayfield and Island Creek).  There are good communities in each of these schools.

In regards to 22315, the challenge will be finding a SFH b/c there aren't very many.  There are some.  I know there was a house for sale on Wynema in the Island Creek zone.  But, there aren't many that come up for sale.  Very livable area -- easy to get around, not so intense, easy to get your kids into activities, etc.
