[quote=Anonymous]I have a 14 month old so take my recommendations with a grain of salt.

We love Montessori schools and the Montessori philosophy so my hope is to get my LO in one of those programs. We live in MoCo, in Silver Spring. I absolutely LOVED the Barrie School. The campus, the admissions staff, everything. Their tuition rates are published online. It's out of our price range or I would enroll my son there in a heartbeat.

A couple things to know about moving to the DMV: it's not anywhere near as bad as the people in your other post are making it out to be. I've lived in Maryland most of my life and I make a concerted effort to live here. Now, northern Virginia has amazing schools. So does Maryland. You really can't go wrong with the public schools in either of these areas. But, MoCo has some areas where the schools aren't as good. Make sure you check out the neighborhoods on Great Schools and you can definitely ask here. Taxes in Maryland are higher than in Virginia, but in Virginia you have to pay property taxes on your cars every year so to me, it's a wash.

I'm a Maryland girl, through and through, so I'm biased. But you really can't go wrong. Know that you are moving to an incredibly cutthroat, high achieving, high strung area of the country. It's high stress.

I'm happy to help you with anything else, just ask.[/quote]
