[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with this: "A panic move when your kid is only one might not be the best for every family." If you already have lots of school-related anxiety, then sure get serious about moving now to a suburb with more reputable public schools. But the Hill is in many respects really great with small kids. It is pretty walkable, there is public transportation, there are lots of other families, there are lots of activities in this area geared towards kids, and the schools are overall okay (most people go DCPS for elementary school). You take it a year at a time and some anxiety about upper elementary and middle school hits about 4th grade, but a lot of people muddle okay through that too. If your child is one, you have a lot of years to gradually figure things out. [/quote] However, it gets harder to move every year. You build relationships with your school community in elementary. It's hard to do that in older grades. Just move now OP. [/quote]
