[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in North Chevy Chase, just south of Kensington but fairly close to SS as well. I would buy in Kensington in a heartbeat, preferably in a Rock creek Hills (BCC district) but possibly also KP. Woodmoor has a huge fan club, particularly on this board, and for good reason. But elementary school comes more quickly than you'd think, and if you can afford a great public option such as KP or Rosemary Hills (for the Rock Creek Hills part of Kensington), it truly seems insane to choose a neighborhood that doesn't have a good public school? Besides whatever higher score Woodmoor might get on the warm and fuzzy quotient, there's no discernible advantage, and the lack of a good public school in Woodmoor (both at elementary and [b]at HS levels)[/b] makes the choice easy. Plus it's not like Kensington is a miserable place -there's the quaint downtown, the MARC, the community activities (4th of July parade etc)[/quote]

Just to clarify:  Are you saying that Montgomery Blair isn't a good public high school?  I assume Woodmoor kids go to Blair. . . .[/quote]

I am also interested. It seems people on here are obsessed with the BCC cluster and anything else is not an option besides private of course.[/quote]

Yes.  I live in Silver Spring and have two middle schoolers.  Just this weekend, someone at a party in Bethesda commented to me that we'll be needing to move in another year or so.

Um, no.[/quote]
