[quote=Anonymous]Another thing to think about here, if ensuring diversity is a key point for you, is possibly locating near Fort Belvoir or one of the other military bases here in the area. My kid has gone to 2 FCPS elementary schools around Alexandria/Springfield and the student body has always been extremely diverse. Less than 50 percent white kids and 50 percent everyone else. Obviously, the one issue is that your kid will make friends with other kids who will leave after a few years and that is hard. But being near a base also helps with home values because of the robust rental market for military families.[/quote]
