[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your kids will be fine at Rachel Carson or Dufief. They can get a good education at either school. Right now Rachel Carson is large and Dufief is small. The plan was to rezone 300 RCES students to Dufief. I’m not sure how that will play out post pandemic. Enrollment at RCES has been trending downward the last few years. I don’t know how many students might have left for private schools that are open for in-person. Figuring out who would get rezoned will be very tricky politically. I think it’s entirely possible it won’t end up happening any time soon.[/quote]

My kid attended RCES and then we had to move to Fairfax County for a few years. Now we are back and I'm happy about it. Its a good school, but so is Dufief. Obviously, there is animosity between the Kentlands/Lakelands residents with students that attend RCES and those that live outside those areas. Those outside these neighborhoods tend to think of the Kentlands/Lakelands residents as being elitist and looking down at non-residents and Kentlands/Lakelands residents want the school to be a walkable neighborhood school. There are other issues along this line that have been ongoing for years. As for the Mormon comment, I don't get it.[/quote]
