Where to live south of Boston?

My neighbor had her daughter in this Montessori school in Foxborough (south of Walpole):
King's Wood Montessori School. Good luck!

Thanks Haberstroh- that one is on my list! Any info on The Goddard School in Walpole? Also, are there any public swimming pools in the Walpole area which are open all year round? Do you know of any dance schools that offer hip-hop/jazz/pom? Thanks for your help!!

I have looked into the Goddard school for my 3 year old but found it too expensive. I am sure the school is great but would consider it more of a child care center that caters towards all day care vs. a pre-school. I don't remember if they have a private kindergarten program, though. Walpole, like all American towns have several dance schools, I know of two for sure and an Irish dance school as well. Almost all girls here dance/do gymnastics. Mine actually swim but I have not had time to enroll them yet. (Still unpacking ;-)) Walpole has an excellent swim team but train in neighboring Canton in a Regional School in the Winter. In the summer they use the outdoor town pools. Go to the Walpole Web Walpole Massachusetts Official Website website and you will find all kinds of information regarding the town's sports programs.

I also had a neighbor who sent their kids to the Montessori in Foxboro, and was very happy.
One other thing, the YMCA in Walpole is quite old and small. There is a much nicer, newer one in Foxboro. It doesnt yet have a pool, but should in a couple years(?)

Thanks! We are coming up to the Norfolk co area this weekend - all of your ideas have given us some great places to start!

Providence

commuter rail goes there. (you get to downtown faster than driving from milford)

lower taxes, lower housing prices, better schools etc..
