I like the downtown Silver Spring and Four Corners area, but the schools at the elementary level and middle school level are really uneven. Plus, I'm not convinced that Blair is a great school unless you're in one of the magnet programs.
I'll explore some of the options listed here and appreciate the responses.
Thank you!
Those of us who live and use the schools here disagree with you, but it's your choice, obviously.
Good luck finding something in a neighborhood slated for what you consider a "great school" with a $400K budget.
