[quote=Anonymous]Hi, I need a crash course on schools in DC and surroundings. We will be moving from Belgium next summer, for my husband's job. Our oldest son will be 5 (starting Kindergarten in September 2012) and he is fluent in French because he has been going to a French-speaking school (we speak English at home). We would like him to keep his good level of French, so are looking at either 100% French (like Rochambeau, are there others?) or bilingual (like Washington International School) schools. What schools are there, either in DC or sorroundings? Are there any public bilingual schools? Do you need to live in a particular area to go to a particular public school? (can we enrol at a public school if we don't know yet where we are going to live?). I deally we would like a school that do Kindergarten and at least 1st and 2nd Grade. I heard that public shools can be very good and very bad, how can we discern (apart from asking in this forum)? Any help appreciated.[/quote]
