[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You might like East Bethesda. You can walk to Bethesda Elementary (though a lot of parents choose to let the kids ride the bus instead). But the best part is that the kids can walk to high school. (BCC) And you can walk to town, and NIH.

East Bethesda is the neighborhood South of the Naval Medical Center (Jones Bridge Road) and North of East West Highway. (and East of Wisconsin.) I think a poster above referred to it as "town of Chevy Chase" and some maps list it as Chevy Chase, but the neighborhood is called East Bethesda, and the mailing address is Bethesda. As a poster above suggests, you might also like the neighborhood that feeds into Somerset.[/quote]

PP to whom you refer.  Town of Chevy Chase and East Bethesda are different.  E. Bethesda is just N. of BCC between EW and Jones Bridge Road and Wisc and CT.  Town of Chevy Chase is S. of EW to Bradley, but also between Wisc and Ct.  South of Town of Chevy Chase is Chevy Chase Village -- from about CC Country Club to the Circle.  Some of the area west of CC Circle is actually zoned for Somerset.

OP, you will want to look at the boundary maps, which are available here -- http://gis.mcpsmd.org.  You can look up school district by cluster or school.  Or you can input specific addresses.

FWIW, the zoning for middle school will be changing at some point for CC and maybe some of Bethesda ES -- it is unknown which neighborhoods will go to the new middle school set to open in a few years.  Could also change for Somerset and Westbrook, but that is less likely due to their greater distance to the new middle school site. [/quote]
