[quote=Anonymous]Our DC has went to both Freedom Hill and Haycock. We liked both schools, and I think children would get a good education at either. If I had to pick, I guess overall we like Haycock better. Freedom Hill did a great job of celebrating the diversity of its students. They have a popular International Night where the students have a parade representing their ethnicity. A student from overseas would feel very welcome there. It's not a walk able area, but the school itself is very close to Tyson Corners shopping. In comparison to Haycock, i think the academics are stronger at Haycock. This may have more to do with our individual circumstance, as our teachers at FH were not great. At Haycock, the teachers emphasize differentiated learning. They have many reading groups and a specialist. The students are divided by ability in math starting in the first grade. The major problem with Haycock is the lack of parking. Attending school events can be a pain. [/quote]
