[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am struggling with this choice. Commute wise, living in this area would be absolute cake, but I look at the Burke schools (for example since they are in a similar price point) and I'm trying to figure out if the risk is worth living in a gorgeous area (I absolutely love the trail Middle school and high school worry me. [/quote] There are good teachers at every school and good programs at West Potomac and Mount Vernon. If you are able to live in Burke or the other side of the county I would suggest those instead. We recently moved from this area and are happier with our new achool. We struggled with the decision for years because the houses are more affordable in S. Alex. We have a smaller house, better schools and still live near a trail. [/quote] Could you give the differences between the schools? What makes your current school better than your S. Alex. school? Also, did your commute change? Is it better/worse? [/quote]
