Here are stats from the school.
High percentage of low income Hispanic families.
I know the area well, and the demographics have shifted dramatically.
The neighborhood you are considering is an anomaly: a nicer, newer neighborhood plopped in the middle of aging housing stock with many apartments and other low-income rentals.
You should really drive around and check out grocery stores, etc. before settling there. See if you feel safe after dark at the local 7-11 or shopping center.
Also: check out the sex offender data.
Ganglandia! Ganglandia! All is Ganglandia!
Except my neighborhood. It's perfect.

Not OP, but I wouldn’t feel safe at any 7-11 at night anywhere. And there are a million grocery stores in the greater silver spring area, so you’re not limited to the one that is closer to your house by .10 mile. OP, silver spring (all of its many zip codes) is a big, diverse place. In general, dcum is not a very good place to ask about it because you get responses from people who don’t live there but have judgments about it, unless it happens to be one of the handful of schools that have a critical-enough mass of parents that post on these boards.

Our experience at Glenallan has mostly been good. But I think you’ll get more feedback if you specify your concerns or what is important to you in a good school for your son?

Hello!
Moving to MOCO from out of state. Looking at the Poplar Run neighborhood. Anyone have any children at Glenallan ES? What was your experience there? Our son will be entering first grade. Thank you!
