[quote=Anonymous]Hi,

Considering moving to Alexandria and wondering about school ratings and resale. We're basically empty-nesters so don't need the schools but want good resale and want to stay in a home vs an apartment or townhouse and close proximity to DC for commuting.

We've seen homes in Clermont/Twain/Edison area Wilton Woods: Franconia, VA, Groveton, VA, Rose Hill, VA 
I've heard Franconia Schools are good but don't like the overall area there or Hayfield area
North Ridge/Rosemont Charles Barrett/TC Williams area
Waynewood 
Fort Hunt

I'm not loving the school ratings. Waynewood is an 8 but the middle school and high school seem low.

I know some schools have international baccalaureate and AP, which is great, but overall the scores are 4's or lower on GreatSchools.

Do you live in these areas? What has your experience been with the schools if your child(ren) are not in advanced placement?
How has resale been in your areas? 
Anything else I should consider?

Thank you.[/quote]
