[quote=Anonymous]People are only going to know their own experiences, so it's a hard question to answer. And also depends on your own specific situation.

ASFS parent, rezoned from Taylor last school year. Both schools are/were fine. At the time we were there, Taylor felt like a more nurturing environment than ASFS where the principal is more old school. I think it was a really nice environment for the early elementary years, but I think it matters less for the later elementary years. I'm not sure my kids would have cared either way, this is just my own perspective. ASFS is more diverse than Taylor, but probably less diverse than it was before the rezoning. ASFS draws from a more transient population, there are a lot of State Department kids that come through the school whose parents are here to attend language classes before moving onto their next assignment, so it's not uncommon for kids to only be at the school for part of the year.

Point being, I was happy with Taylor, and happy with ASFS. Both seem to draw from relatively down to earth populations, at least within my own interactions. But I'm certain there are other APS schools that would be totally fine as well.[/quote]
