[quote=Anonymous]Recent alumnus here. Would love to settle the air on some things posted above. The Heights is filled with families who have modest lifestyles. Over 50% of students get need based aid. Several kids who graduated in my year had to chose far lesser of academic colleges because of money. Further, the teachers at The Heights live very modest lifestyles and make far less than those at any other private or MCPS public. Like any other DMV Private, there are also SOME ultra wealthy, including a Billionaire's sons. As far as "racist" goes thats ludicorous. The school is of Hispanic descent and has a large portion of black students. The class above mine was 25% black. Sure an incident pops up every few years, but its nothing like what we see at Gonzaga, Landon...etc. Please feel free to fire away with any other questions![/quote]
