[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids can walk to ATS, Cardinal, and Ashlawn. We did not apply to ATS, but I have friends who got in to ATS and would have gone to Tuckahoe and Nottingham respectively.  Now that our kids are half-way through elementary, I will note that my kids’ friends are mostly walking / biking distance or a 3 min drive. The ATS parents drive all over town for play dates. I’ve also developed a network of mom friends in my neighborhood with whom I can carpool and trade favors like walking kids to school if I have an early meeting or picking up a sick kid from school because I work at home and their parent is in DC. My friends who chose ATS don’t really know their neighbors with similar age kids and their friendships are tied to the kid friendships.

If you are new to the area, I would want to live in a neighborhood that feeds a school you are willing to go to if you don’t get into APS for the sake of establishing kid and adult friendships.[/quote]

How are you in walking distance of ATS, Cardinal, AND Ashlawn?  ATS and Cardinal I can see, but Ashlawn also?  [/quote]

NP, but this was true for us in our old house near Dominion Hills.[/quote]
