[quote=Anonymous]The catch you may find is that enrollment is up in NOVA Catholic Schools, across the board. Some people came for the open schools during Covid and stayed because it worked for them. I'd ask what the maximum class size is, (ideally) and under what circumstances they'd increase those. Twins? Returning military? A large family? My kid started as the 16th kid in 3rd grade and it was great. A school down the road closed and suddenly they were in a class of 24. It was still great, but small could mean under 30 or small could mean 12. If you are looking for a teacher:student ratio that is low, ask about it on the tour or in a follow up. FCPS used to use 30 as a typical class size. APS shoots for smaller. [/quote]
