[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The DHMS building and campus are phenomenal. Probably the best, facility-wise in APS (if not the entire DC area) for a middle school. Kids aren't old enough yet, but I've heard the teachers and admin there are very good. [/quote]

Really? When HB was there the field was too narrow for soccer, which is why ultimate frisbee became the big HB sport. Did they reconfigure it to get a standard size field?[/quote]

H-B can’t have VHSL sanctioned sports like soccer since the school is technically a program. So, H-B soccer athletes play at their neighborhood high schools from grade 8 on up, if they make the team. Ultimate Frisbee is not a VHSL sport, so H-B can form teams that compete with other high schools. But APS does consider Ultimate Frisbee an official varsity sport kind of like Rifle. And students can get the official varsity letter sweater or jacket with the pins.

APS is unique since the middle schools like DHMS have interscholastic sports teams. I think most districts eliminated middle schools sports years ago. [/quote]
