Aleea,
I would second the JDS rec -- we have some friends who send their kids there, and are very happy. I also have a friend who switched her kids from JDS to JPDS -- let me see if I can get the scoop for you. We're going to be in the same position soon. For us, it's all soooo far away (long commute form the district, especially when my DH and I both work in the district, but it's important to us.
Where does your DD go to preschool? I'm really curious about the new Jewish Montessori school in Bethesda, but don't know anyone who sends their kids there...
And, YIKES, are these places expensive.
Best,
Nic
One other thing I should mention -- I haven't inquired into this, but someone from our shul, which is conservative, adopted from Russia and told us that some of the Day Schools wouldn't let her kids in because they were adopted conservative. I don't know which schools, but I would be suprpised if it were JDS or JPDS. It also may have been because her kids were old enough to know that they were born Christian and converted when they were adopted.
