[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is the neighborhood around Langley?  Any concerns with McKinley high school arrival or dismissal? Or the nearby drug treatment centers?[/quote]

The neighborhood is a little iffy but gentrifying rapidly.  I have lived nearby to Langley very happily for 7.5 years and can't believe how expensive houses are selling for.  Not sure what you mean about drug treatment centers, if you mean the medical marijuania place on North Capitol that's actually quite far from Langley.

McKinley Tech is a test-in magnet high school so I don't see a lot of behavior problems from the high school kids.  The middle school kids sometimes get rowdy at 3:15, but if you use aftercare, you will very rarely see them.  The principal or AP greet all the students at arrival so it's well-supervised.  If you have a 2-year-old it can be an adjustment being around bigger kids, and I do see some friendly wrassling among the boys, but it's certainly no worse than my own nephews.  I have literally never seen a big kid at Langley raise a hand against a younger one-- I can only hope they enjoy my DC's company as much as DC enjoys theirs.
