Fairfax Schools: Glenforest, Glasgow, Stuart

[Anonymous]

We are looking at a house in Falls Church and it lists these schools (Elementary, Middle, and High School). Does anyone have any information on these schools--Rankings, Impressions, Experiences?

Thanks in advance!

I've done some college admissions work at Stuart High School. The main thing the counselors told me about was that it is highly diverse. I believe English is the native language of less than half of the student body, and there were a pretty large number of different languages spoken by the students at home. It also has an IB program that they are very proud of and that many students seem to participate in. Overall I don't think its considered one of the better Fairfax County schools, but its still a Fairfax County school. Everyone seemed pretty nice to me in my limited visits there. I think the counselors are very enthusiastic about their kids going on to higher education.

When I was in school in Falls Church, Stuart was considered one of the less desirable schools in Fairfax County.
