[quote=Anonymous]Mary Ellen Henderson MS and Meridian HS are right next to each other. Kids all ride buses there together so your siblings two years apart will have probably more time going in the same direction as other school experiences.

Big factor is also that Meridian student population is about half the size of Arlington and Fairfax HS. For us, it means more opportunities to join the sports teams or get a spot in the school play. Something to consider.

[quote=Anonymous]We are evaluating neighborhoods for a move to the Arlington area. Looking for combination of safe walkable neighborhood with great schools for our elementary aged kids. We liked City of Falls Church for walkability and seemingly good schools but read some pretty bad experiences by students at the middle school (Mary Ellen Henderson Middle School). Also it is a bummer that our two kids who are 2 grade levels apart would barely ever be in the same school given the 2-elementary school setup. Does anyone have experience with these schools and willingness to share or recommend? Our kids do not (currently) have special learning needs and we really like the idea of IB curriculum. Thank you! Would also appreciate suggestions for alternatives to Falls Church.[/quote][/quote]
