I realize that you may have already purchased, but Bristow is a truly amazing area to raise a family. The schools in particular are phenomenal. My son attends Bristow Run and I've never experienced such involvement from both teachers and parents.
There are constant "spirit nights" where children can meet outside of school at local community business and the school gets a portion of the purchases from that night. Fun fairs, silent autions, weekly extracurricular activities for every grade.
For example, every Friday morning my second grader goes to school an hour early to attend Chess club. It is a free club and about 40 other children attend.
German, spanish, chinese classes, Karate, music, the list goes on! I'm constanly emailed by teachers, getting newsletters, weekly updates, etc about school functions, my son's progress.
I'm sure you get it by now, it is phenomenal! Victory and Cedar point elementary are exceptional as well.
