[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To answer your other question, Clubs help the school feel smaller as do band and sports, you have a group that you know. The cafeteria is large, so my DD, who is introverted, often goes to the library during lunch or walks around with her friends. My DD has friends in all but 2 classes. The key is just finding your niche. As stated band will be great for her! [/quote] This is it. My DD, in the band, is part of the band subculture. And some other groups (e.g., eco-nerds). I assume similar groups exist at Oakton. As I recall OP asked about privates. There are not many private options in Fairfax county. The schools are good enough where most people use the public schools. Exceptions might be for the wealthy. Secular private schools include Flint Hill Prep (Oakton), Basis (McLean/Tysons) and Potomac (McLean). DC has many more private schools, but that is largely the result of more wealth and substandard public options. [/quote]
