[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We used to live in one of the few single family neighborhoods zoned for Dogwood. Not a single family went to Dogwood - mainly St. Joes or pupil place into Fox orMill (Japanese immersion program in 1st grade) OR Hunters Woods (Magnet lottery in kinder). We ended up deciding to move as we hated paying so much in taxes to be zoned for a low performing school. Hughes and South Lakes are fine - they are IB which may people do not like. Have a higher FARMS rate because of schools like Dogwood and Lake Anne, etc that feed into them. [/quote] Polo Fields neighborhood? [/quote] Could be Freetown Dr or Stratton Woods.[/quote] Stratton Woods and Polo Fields are the same thing. OP- Unless your child needs ESL services I would not send them to Dogwood. You have a few other options that someone mentioned above if you choose to buy a house there. Honestly unless you have to be in that location I’d push a smidge further out. [/quote] Stratton Woods and Polo Fields are not the same. I lived in Stratton Woods, which was not part of Reston Association and had its own HOA.[/quote] +1 I live in Polo Fields and it's not the same. It looks like it is because they named the park by Polo Fields Stratton Woods Park. That's because it's a county park and Stratton Woods isn't part of Reston Association. Also, Stratton Woods has one street of houses built by Ryan Homes bordering the parkway that are the same models as in Polo Fields, so it makes it look like one big cohesive neighborhood. The rest of Stratton Woods is a different builder with different looking houses.[/quote]
