[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where will your kids go to school? It’s all fun and eclectic until you figure out how awful the schools are. [/quote]

This right here. Don't move to Brookland unless you already have schools figured out or are comfortable risking the DCPS lottery or paying for private. The neighborhood DCPS schools just aren't getting any better. We have had so many friends move to the neighborhood with a "oh, we'll figure out the school issue when we need to" attitude. All of them figured it out by moving away.[/quote]

We live in the area and have loved the charter school our kids are in.  We moved here before they were born so it's definitely do-able to figure out schools.  Their friends from school have stayed in DC if they've stayed in the area (meaning people who moved to other regions obviously aren't in DC).

The school lottery can be stressful but it's manageable as there are MANY good charter schools and some good DCPS ones to lottery into as well.[/quote]
