Not that I'll be a great help (raised locally but attended public schools and don't have any kids yet), but what sort of private schools are you looking for? A particular religion? A particular program such as gifted, ESL, special ed? Socially prestigious schools? The public schools in NoVA are pretty decent for most students... (unlike DC *ahem* !!!)

Here is a link to private schools in NOVA: Northern Virginia Real Estate - MLS Homes for Sale (BTW, the list is not all inclusive since I don't see our church's school listed).
It might help to narrow down your choices and ask here about a few you may be interested in or be more specific as to what you are looking for (as the PP said). |

For advanced kids, there is Nysmith in Herndon. Pretty pricey though.

Our daughter attends Flint Hill School in Oakton & we're very happy with the school. Some others that I have heard of are Eldin School in Reston, Merritt Acadamy in Fairfax & Green Hedges in Vienna, Best of luck with your search.

Flint Hill School, Oakton
I went to Flint Hill School in Oakton, VA and loved every minute of it. I went in high school, but again, I loved it. And what teenager loves anything?!? Check it out, the teachers are great, there is a strong sense of community, they appreciate the outdoors and encourage camping and trips. These are qualities which appealed to me beyond the name to get you into college

I have been looking into private schools in the same area for quite sometime now. GreatSchools.net is a good source. Choose your area or zip code proximity and sort by "school type" and you will be able to see a list of all private schools. Many have parent reviews as well, which I've found very helpful. But do keep in mind that some of the information there may not be perfectly up-to-date. Another link that I've found useful: Private Schools in Northern Virginia- Private School Directory |
