Description
This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from March 06, 2024
Classic colonial in Del Ray! This home offers three generously-sized bedrooms, a finished basement with a full bath, a traditional main-level floor plan with a formal dining room and living room with fireplace. Natural light exudes throughout the home with several windows and a southern exposure for the front of the home. The former garage now serves as a cozy family room on the side of the main level, while the former three-season room offers year-round comfort and can serve as an office or study. All natural hardwood floors have been restored to life throughout the main and upper level of the home. Fresh, new carpet has been laid on the lower level for maximum comfort. Park your car in the front driveway on Howell or the extra-long pad off the alley behind the home. A level backyard offers opportunity for relaxation, entertainment, and play. It can also accommodate plenty of room for home addition. This location is easily convenient to the charming shops and restaurants on 'The Avenue,' Slaters Lane, North Old Town, both the Braddock and Potomac Yard Metro Stations, Route 1 and GW Parkway, Simpson Park, and the Mount Vernon Trail.

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOur daughter is in 2nd grade and has attended MVCS since Kindergarten. All her teachers have been wonderful -- attentive to her and responsive to any concerns we have. The dual language program was difficult in virtual school but she is accelerating again now that they have been back in person full time this year. We speak English at home, but multiple native Spanish speakers have commented to me that her accent is incredible. The early grades so far have not focused on homework, which we love -- kids receive books to read and are encouraged to do math activities, but no formal homework is assigned. Our daughter tests well, reflecting the great teachers at this school. MVCS has particularly focused on Social Emotional learning since the pandemic started, and the kids have a lot of tools for recognizing and regulation emotions, particularly stress. We hope this focus remains in place for the long run, as we really like it.Parent Review2y ago - Alexandria City High School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageFrom firsthand knowledge, it is regrettable to report that George Washington Middle School is grappling with significant challenges. The school's environment, instead of fostering learning and development, is often dominated by unruly and occasionally violent behavior.The administration, tasked with managing these issues, appears to provide insufficient support to teachers to address these challenges effectively. Their unresponsiveness not only intensifies the burden on those dealing with these behavioral problems daily but also significantly hinders the overall learning process.Moreover, the school faces additional systemic issues. The misuse of electronic devices, insufficient interdisciplinary collaboration among teachers, and a flawed approach to student recognition all contribute to a disheartening environment that calls for decisive intervention and transformation.One issue that merits particular attention is the handling of the honors program. What should be an emblem of academic achievement has become disappointingly disconnected from genuine merit. The school's (and ACPS's) focus on critical race theory seems to have driven this shift, leading to a disturbing trend of recognizing underachievement and distorting the true purpose of the honors program. Instead of distinguishing high-achieving students, it appears that virtually anyone can be designated an honors student, thus undermining the program's credibility and devaluing the accomplishments of truly deserving students.In light of the existing challenges, George Washington Middle School may benefit from an external intervention by the state. A comprehensive transformation focusing on reestablishing discipline, educational excellence, and genuine merit-based recognition is urgently needed.Put plainly, the situation at George Washington Middle School is a cause for concern. As someone intimately familiar with the school's inner workings, it is my hope that bringing these issues to light will help trigger the necessary reforms. This is a critical step in ensuring that the school can fulfill its central role in educating and preparing our future generations.Other Review9mo ago - Check out schools near 504 E Howell Ave.
