Subject line nearly says it all.  I have the lists available from most
search engines, but they are incomplete.

Can somebody please provide me a list of all private elementary
schools in the DC metro area, including, but not limited to,
Montessori, Waldorf, and Catholic schools?

Thanks.

Link below nearly says it all:

This should open up a list of more than 300 elementary private schools
in and around Washington DC, with a lot of nice information on each.

Let me know if you have any problems opening the link, or if you need
any additional information.

Cheers from DC,

I see that the file has re-created some of the extraneous material
that I had (thought was) deleted -- such as the columns for:

PSS_COUNTY_NO	
PSS_COUNTY_FIPS	
PSS_STABB	
PSS_FIPS

and other stuff I'm sure you have no need for.


If you want a cleaner version of the file, just let me know.

Hi,
I can't get the link to work...it says the page no longer exists...is
it possible that the excel data was transient? Or somehow linked to
you?

Also, I'm cool with an ugly tab delimited file.

And you rock.

I think you're right...it was only a temporary link.

Here's another one to try (also temporary, but good for a few days, at
least, so make sure to save it to your local system):

I kept all the columns intact, since you don't seem to mind them, and
they may even add a bit of useful info.

Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you on this.

This answer was absolutely perfect, tons of data, more than I asked
for, all extremely helpful.
