[quote=Anonymous]I'm not one of the PPs who has said anything negative about VA, but if you attend private school in DC, you will encounter that attitude of no one ever wanting to cross the bridge (we lived in VA, and while we were there, we experienced that attitude from our DC and MD friends many times). And yes, you can definitely get to St. Pat's and GDS lower school faster from some points right over the bridge in VA than you can from MoCo. However, it's quicker to get to the the vast majority of private schools in DC from MoCo. And VA has some great privates (Potomac, Langley), but based on sheer number, there are more privates in MoCo. You'll also find more MoCo families in the DC private schools than VA kids. I don't know if that's due to proximity or if the Virginians are happier with their public schools. From what I've heard, the Arlington public elementary schools sound more impressive than our public elementary schools so perhaps.[/quote]
