[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Uhm, based on schools the ideal location is NOT DC. Anywhere but. I guess if you technically have to live in the district and participate in the disappointment that is DCPS then I’d choose anywhere for elementary in NW DC. 
For middle school and HS you need to find an alternative. There are quite a few disruptive and unmotivated students even at the MS with the highest test scores. [/quote]
This is true if your kid needs small classes and who know what else. Not true for a kid who needs nothing but a school. 
My kid goes to school with kids who all will do fine regardless where to go after elementary. The peers are the best part of school.
I was in K class almost for a year with those kids in NWDC. The smarts, the get-go, the support those kids get is so much more important than any school they go to. So, there's no need to move anywhere from DCPS for middle school or high school.
Even if they chill in J-R with less homework, they have the ability to shift into gear #2 in college and catch up in no time.
