+1 on Chesterbrook. Great Level IV program, but not as "tiger mom" as Haycock. If your kid doesn't qualify for AAP, they still can take up to three AAP classes if they test into it each quarter (well, testing and space availability). Great community and fun school. Also, easy commute to DC.

I find this a bit interesting as I belong to another chat/list serve and area moms from Chesterbrook seem quite Elitist. If the Queen bee doesn't agree with your post watch out. I've never posted a thing about schools or neighborhoods on that list serve having seen some responses. I think you really just need to get a feel for schools by going to PTA meetings, going on tours, asking people yourself when your there about their opinions, asking people you already know who go there or know people at schools that they can connect you to.[/quote]

Funny, I only moved into the area a year ago from out of town and I'm part of two list serves for the Chesterbrook area and I haven't seen that kind of mentality - even from the moms in person.  Maybe I'm not on the "right" list serve.  I'm sure there are some Queen Bees, but doesn't every school have a few of those.  Of course, I stay away from PTAs, so maybe I'm not running into them as much. :)  Most of the moms I have met (even being a newbie) have been downright nice and friendly.[/quote]
