[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi. I'll be moving to Montgomery County for the schools, and need to be near a Metro. Right now I'm looking at Somerset Elementary School and Bethesda Elementary School. They both look terrific. I'm also open to other elementary schools near a Metro in MoCo. 
If you have any experience with either school, I'd be grateful for any insights. 
Also, how do I find out how large the classes are in the schools? I have a preference for small classes. (Who doesn't? But I fear my quiet, shy daughter might get lost in a large class.) I've looked at the schools' Web sites and can't tell how many kids are in a class. 
Thank you all again! [/quote]

You missed our school -- Chevy Chase Elementary.  Check out those test score baby (just kidding).  And you can get a house within walking distance to Bethesda Metro.  You can also do as I do and take the ride on bus to the Friendship Heights Metro or the Silver Spring Metro.

Don't get too taken in by class size alone.  If you have a class of 25 students with 1 disruptive student it can be easier to give attention to everyone in the class than a class of 20 students with 3 disruptive students.  Also look at the school's attendance/suspension/mobility rates and the number of experienced teachers.  Good Luck.
