[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Highly recommend Ross elementary. Wonderful community of families and lots of expats in DC for work and very welcoming. Tons of families and easy access to downtown, museums, activities, parks. Easy to walk everywhere or take public transit. It is a tiny boundary so do check the address carefully. But there are many rental options. Enjoy your time here![/quote] Other than the expense and PK4 challenges, I think Ross is the best place for a family hoping to experience the city for a year. The area is fun, you’re close in, lots to do, and the Ross community is fantastic. Very welcoming but also a lot of families that move often so you probably won’t be the only one in and out in a year. [/quote] I personally would do Capitol Hill over DuPont with under 12s. Lots of city-type amenities, but with more room & a more neighborhoody feel. I’d try for LT since it’s close to Union Station, a PK4er with a sibling will get in & it’s a good, diverse school. Brent is great too, but some chance PK4 doesn’t get in and your $$ won’t go as far.[/quote]
