[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I know many students who have attend Bishop O'Connell, and they represent a range of academic achievement. Students who are capable and desire to reach high levels of academic achievement will be supported and challenged to reach those goals at O'Connell. The school has a range of Honors and AP courses available, a STEM program, a Global Studies program, an Exchange Program, a Study Abroad program, and a Dual Enrollment program with Marymount University. This is what my DS is getting out of O'Connell. He's in the most rigorous schedule and in the advanced math and language tracks. Will have 9 APs when he graduates along with two dual enrollment classes. He plays a sport seriously and will have coach's support with recruiting. Counselors are very helpful and willing to tout candidates to college admissions offices. Non-sporty, academically strong kids do well at O'Connell. Just take the higher level and AP courses. If you demand the very best in academic excellence and want a much more homogeneous experience and have the extra money and daily time/hassle to get to St Anselm's everyday in Northeast DC (that right now is a 42 minute drive from my Tysons location), then sure, go for it - academically it's a great little school.[/quote] 👆[/quote]
