[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP: Researching IB and l feel like AP will be a better fit for my kids. What about West Potomac or Lake Braddock?[/quote]

I had recommended Edison, but if you want AP instead of IB, I would pick the Hayfield pyramid over West Potomac.  I don't know much about Lake Braddock.  The Hayfield Farm neighborhood is nice because students can walk to school throughout all 13 years of school.  Hayfield elementary is right inside the neighborhood, so kids can walk to school on their own at a very young age.  Grades 7-12 are at Hayfield secondary, which is right across Telegraph Rd. from the elementary school.  Home prices aren't too bad in Hayfield compared to other areas in Fairfax County, and there is a community pool in Hayfield Farm and no HOA. I teach in the Edison pyramid, and my kids attend Hayfield, so I'm quite familiar with both.  I think they are both solid choices.[/quote]

Imagine telling someone who wants to be close to DC that Hayfield is a good choice. [/quote]
To be fair, it doesn’t sound like the OP has enough money to live that close to DC anyway.[/quote]

I don't see anywhere that OP mentions their budget or finances.[/quote]

They said they cannot afford Arlington prices, which would exclude McLean and Langley. There are areas on Oakton that might be doable but those are also the areas most vulnerable to boundary changes in the next 5 years. [/quote]
