Hello! I moved to Richmond with my husband and 3 year old son in February from Brooklyn and we are loving it here. I have been researching Richmond area schools since before we moved here -- and the many options were a big factor for our move.

There are a few things that are important to me when looking at an elementary school that are not often included in the stats and reviews-- I would like to find a school that balances academics with a strong focus on recess and a school that does not overwhelm a young child with a lot of unnecessary homework. Does anyone have a specific recommendation? Diversity would also be a huge plus.

My son absolutely loves school and his preschool is amazing. I'd like to take this momentum and run with it while we can. We are very open to where we might move -- Bon Air, Glen Allen, Mechanicsville, Midlothian... My husband would love a half acre and our budget is likely under $250k.

Thank you!
