[quote=Anonymous]If you want to be in a walkable area and are interested in swimming, you may want to be close to Yorktown/Washington Liberty/Wakefield highs schools because that is where the public pools and clubs are primarily. Maybe Long Branch Aquatic center too. If your child is a good swimmer, the middle school programs aren't enough - most good swimmers train at clubs. There are also summer swim leagues through local pools like Overlee and Donaldson Run and Dominion Hills. I am an international person living in Arlington. I agree with others that people who want to moan write reviews. If I believed them, our local middle school would have been a cesspit of drugs, sex and bullying, when in fact it was a nice place with great teachers. The benefit of the public schools over private is that a kid can find like minded friends because there are more kids. You might ask about HB Woodlawn too, but you might have to wait for the high school lottery for that. Will your child require any ESOL help? [/quote]
