[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A couple of notes (I live in that area and have kids in elementary)

1. It's helpful to get feedback from people with kids actually in the schools (including middle schools) but keep in mind that all of the DCC schools are constantly changing (for the most part, getting better and better as demographic changes) so by the time your kiddos are there, these schools should be at least as good as they are now, but likely even better.

2. From personal experience at both Woodlin and Sligo Creek (and many friends at both), FWIW the PTA at Woodlin is much more organized and high-functioning... you'll likely have a better experience there with after school clubs, events, and other types of support. I'm not sure the entire reason why -  perhaps because Woodlin is overall higher SES, or because the SCES principal is not well-liked (and therefore people shy away from volunteering for the PTA and working with her), or because SCES has an immersion program so is "split" in that way...

3. If you do SCES/SSIMS, they are right next to each other so if you're in SCES district you'll end up living pretty close to middle school too.  If you're in Woodlin district, Sligo MS is a bit up Georgia so not as convenient.  And Einstein is way the heck up in Wheaton. [/quote]

Einstein is actually in Kensington.[/quote]
