[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the answer has to depend to some extent on where you live in Loudoun. I've heard of people who live in western Loudoun -- i.e. Round Hill, Purcellville, etc. -- and the kids commute to TJ. There is no way in my mind that the commute could be worth the compromised quality-of-life when the Academies are an option (and even the commute to the Academies every other day from western Loudoun would be pretty long). [/quote] +1 I don't see how those kids do it. That said, if you're not on the super far end of Loudoun, the full time nature of TJ (vs the part time nature of the Academy) is something to keep in mind too. What DD's loved most about TJ has been the vibe and friends she's made there - she's convinced she wouldn't have connected the same way at our base school (where she went to MS) - and you wouldn't have the same EC type experience at the Academy that TJ offers due to being a full time model.
