[quote=Anonymous]Oakton had the high school level classes for the immersion students when Fox Mill was zoned for Oakton. It's been a few years since Fox Mill rezoned to South Lakes and now South Lakes has the post immersion program.

For what it's worth, Fox Mill is talked about a lot on the real estate forum because it's a nice community. It will never satisfy people who want a 5,000 sq foot houses. Most lots are a quarter acre and most homes are 3-4 bedrooms, around 2,000 sq feet. The elementary school is in the middle of the neighborhood - most kids walk though there are a couple of buses for kids more than one mile away. There are two community pools (with memberships), a shopping center, playgrounds, and generally people get to know each other very well.

I'm a big advocate of living in the boundary where you/r kids want to go to school. Why not make life easier and then they live by their friends, can easily do activities together, you get to know your neighbors, etc.

Fox Mill ES is a great school even outside of the JI program (two years of renovation coming up, FYI), Carson is a great middle school, and though the great school scores are lower, parents and students love South Lakes. [/quote]
