[quote=Anonymous]Hi gang! Brand new to these forums and the area, so please go easy... We are considering buying a house in Arlington, eyeing Lyon Park or Lyon Village. (Logic: family neighborhoods, but still walkable to "stuff.") We'd love to be able to send our kids, all under 6, to public schools all the way through. For elementary school, we've heard good things about Arlington Science Focus, but my read of the school boundaries is that most of Lyon Park is not in the right zone. I had two questions about this: 1) If you live in Lyon Park (say, in the Long Branch zone), is there any hope of getting into the Science Focus school, via lottery or otherwise? (Related: is Science Focus really that much better?) 2) Same question for middle schools. How locked in are you to your neighborhood zone? Thanks so much! -MM[/quote]
