Two Elementary Schools for Ashburn Set to Open

The new facilities are set to go for 2013-14 school year.

Students are preparing to head back to school next Tuesday, and many Ashburn students will enter the halls of one of the two new elementary schools opening this year.

Discovery Elementary, off Ashburn Village Parkway near Red Rum Drive, and Moorefield Station, near the Moorefield Village community, are intended to alleviate crowding in other parts of Ashburn, particularly in Brambleton where early registration can be key to attending your local school.

Discovery Trailblazers  James E. Dallas is the principal at Discovery. Dallas previously served as principal of Cedar Lane Elementary School. [Robert Marple is the principal at Cedar Lane.]
