Ok, so you are looking for elementary schools. There are lots of good catholic schools if that's the way that you want to go. I would note that they tend to be more religious than their counterparts in the UK, FYI. I would also say that at the elementary level you are going to find that the class sizes are similar to those in public school. If you are looking for a more traditional school, however, catholic might be the way to go. Some to look at:

Blessed Sacrament
St. Bartholomew's
Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School
Saint Jane Frances de Chantal Catholic
The Wood's Academy

The Woods Academy is in a different league than those other Catholic schools. It's lovely but super expensive and not what OP is looking for.

Bethesda is a great choice. Work with a realtor and request to look at homes in the "Whitman cluster". Within that cluster, you will not find a bad elementary school. Bradley Hills Elementary and Wood Acres Elementary are fantastic. But others are great as well. Welcome to DC!!! [/quote]
