[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, what schools do you think you'd be comfortable with?

Edison, I think, has enough good neighborhoods where you -- and your kids -- will thrive. IMO, it's more about the immediate surroundings with Edison and the "lesser" FCPS schools. we're not talking Freedom-Woodbridge or Gar-Field here. [/quote]

OP here. From what I've read over the past few days, I actually think I would be comfortable with Edison. We just moved to the area from out of state less than a year ago. We probably bought a house a bit prematurely. We bought the house knowing that the schools were not considered top notch but bought on the Fairfax County side of Alexandria knowing that our kids could one day attend TJ if we opted to go the public school route. I spent quite a bit of time researching the private schools in the lower grades but had dismissed the public schools. We bought the house planning to send our kids to Browne, Burgandy Farms, Alexandria Day or SSSA.

We can easily afford to send our kids to private school. DH is the one who changed his mind and now feels strongly about sending our kids to public school. He wants our kids to attend school with a diverse pool of students.[/quote]
