St. John the Beloved in McLean

Anonymous
We are a St. Ann family (N. Arlington) but my kids went to O'Connell and made friends with people who sent their kids there.
It is a lovely community with very kind parents who are not cliquey or stuck up. From what former parents have told me, they draw from the immediate geographic area, so playdates are easy to manage and the students (at least the ones we met) form lifelong friendships. PRO.

No they are not interchangeable. St John’s (the school and the parish) is extremely conservative Catholic. No birth control, must vote for pro-life candidates, etc. Even little things like how the Eucharist is presented directly to the tongue only are odd. CCD there is mean and strict.
