[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live in HH and one of our kids goes to school in Georgetown.  The commute isn't that bad and the drive along the Parkway is pretty.  We have always been able to find a carpool.  Other closer area private schools include: Browne Academy, Burgundy Farm CDS, Bishop Breton, and St. Stephens/St. Agnes but we know plenty of people who have kids attending school in DC (Gonzaga, Visi, Stone Ridge, etc.)

Hope that helps![/quote]

thank you - this does help!

Why move from DC? I know the communities seem different but we are craving more natural surroundings and an affordable house that we love - 600k goes a longer way outside of the city and so does the fresh air. We are also open to other areas but those areas speak to us for different reasons. HH for the community aspects of it and the mid century homes. and Lake Barcroft because I grew up in the midwest near a lake and would love my kids to be able to swim in fresh water like I did growing up.  What a treat that would be for them.  Thank you for this list -it is a great place for us to start. I have not heard a of a few (Browne for examplel) so will look at those.  We love our DC private and our kids to as well but we are at the top of our budget and now that we are house hunting it is time to be wiser with our money choices. We have a 3rd & 5th grader and in a DC k-12 private. It will be very hard to leave but we are ready and have been thinking about it for a few years.  fwiw I have a few friends thinking of the same move (with younger ones - in public and not in school yet).  We have been in DC for almost 20 years.
