[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child is a new freshman at DJO.  We spent a lot of time researching schools and chose DJO for its academics and extracurricular activities, including but not limited to sports. We've been very happy so far.

We know quite a few DJO families and so we had the benefit of hearing from them before making our decision.

It's a Catholic school, and Catholic teaching is "conservative" by today's "woke" standards.  But DJO seems to be a fairly typical Catholic school in that regard. [/quote]

Just recirculating this thread...after being completely underwhelmed by both the APS High School Night and last night's virtual Wakefield session, I am wondering if it would be worth spending the money to attend O'Connell.  I would love to hear from anyone chose DJO over the local APS schools or vice-versa. (And FWIW we love South Arlington are not trying to avoid Wakefield based on poverty or diversity--however, at the high school level APS class sizes are rather large and don't seem to have a great guidance counselor to student ratio.)
