[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am new and have no idea where to post this question…

We are looking to move next year when my kids will be starting middle school.

Which school are you in, which county, that you LOVE? Looking for strong academics but also a walkable open community, with basic amenities in walking distance? We are European family, not interested in having to drive 15 min for every errand or get in the car when we are out of bread.  Is this wishful thinking? Currently in ffx but looking for elsewhere.  [b]School quality is quite important[/b].  [/quote]

Not Arlington. [u]Unless you want to move again for high school[/u].[/quote]

The Arlington high schools are quite good and most families send kids there. (Hyperbole and even lying are common on this site, and some might unwittingly think families are fleeing for privates.) Didn’t the high schools all rank among the top twenty in all of the D.C. region on Niche? W-L was 11 I think, according to the ARLnow story. Solid academics, sports, and walkability for all the schools. You can’t beat that combo. Arlington is one of the few DC suburbs where students can walk to elementary, middle, and high schools. And the cafe or coffee shop after school or for lunch.

Top notch facilities too, either brand or relatively new. [/quote]
