[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are looking in that general area, go a bit south to Potomac Yard -- more families and a playground right there. Or go a bit further from the Metro and look at the Aspen apartments in North Del Ray - tons of families there. If schools are a factor look in Arlington. [/quote]

OP here. Sigh, elementary school is definitely a factor. Finding it hard to evaluate schools from out of town. Not that it would make a difference now since no one is allowing tours due to Covid (rightfully so). [/quote]

Oakridge (lower Crystal City) and Arlington Science Focus (Clarendon/Courthouse) would be considered "better" than Hoffman Boston (CC) and Innovation (Courthouse/Rosslyn). Innovation is a new school, so still a bit of an unknown. My kid goes there and it's been good so far, though. Hoffman Boston has a significantly higher FARMS rate (ie poor kids) than the other schools mentioned. ASFS would be the lowest FARMS rate. All of them have relatively diverse student bodies, particularly in comparison to the schools in the NW part of the county. [/quote]
