[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you everyone! We are an interfaith family( dad is Jewish). So prefer a non-denominational preschool. Sounds like a great community to move into! 
Do most kids attend public schools?[/quote]

Can vary by street or block.  On our block, it was like 8 out of 9 went private (different privates, so many to choose from in this area).  The next street over, most went to Wyngate/NB.[/quote]

IME, mostly WYngate but some families go to privates including st Jane or woods academy or McLean.  Probably half the families I know that chose private did so because the kids has some needs that weren’t well met in public (dyslexia, ASD, social anxiety, etc.).  But there’s plenty going public so there’s typically friends close enough for your kid to walk to their house and easy for parents to get to know one another.[/quote]

Woods Academy is horrible.  Not diverse, academics are lower quality, teacher turnover.  Also, several incidents of racism at the school. [/quote]
