[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’re thinking of moving to Silver Spring or nearby next summer. Coming from DC and will be commuting in on metro. Oldest of three will be starting K. Any recs for elementary school boundaries we should target? We are total newbies to MCPS. Ideally, we’d want a school that isn’t too big, and where most kids stick together through HS. Our housing budget is up to $850k. Thanks![/quote] OP, I highly recommend Rockville (look into the Flower Valley neighborhood that feeds into Flower Valley ES). MS is Earle B. Wood and HS is Rockville High. All are great schools and the Flower Valley community is terrific for families. Most families belong to the Flower Valley pool which is very active and lots of kids on the swim team. The beauty is Rockville HS is one of the smallest high schools in MCPS and kids in the area tend to stick together. There are 4 Elem schools that feed into Wood Middle school and all of the Wood kids go to Rockville High. There are no other middle schools that feed into Rockville HS. Metro closest by is Rockville or Twinbrook. You should definitely check it out. And the homes tend to be in the 600K-800K range so right around your budget. [/quote]
