[quote=Anonymous]My kids go to Herndon, and we live within walking distance to the quaint downtown area. The school has some issues,but my kids have participated in sports (you can try a new sport without previous experience: think volleyball, track, wrestling, football, softball, dive, tennis and golf) and clubs. There are volunteer opportunities, and I have heard the theatre and band departments are wonderful. It is a diverse school, majority Hispanic, by just over half. My eldest graduated with nine AP courses and her lowest grade was only one 3. She was well-prepared for the exams, and is thriving in college. It is easier to stand out among their peers, as there is less competition for leadership positions. Housing is less expensive, but there is a a good sense of community. We have our own mayor, a few festivals and a fun homecoming parade. We enjoy going to the local family owned restaurants, and running into friends. [/quote]
