[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What types of students tend to enroll here as opposed to HB Woodlawn? Just wondering how rigorous the school and what kind of reputation it has. Thanks for any insights.[/quote]

Kids enroll at AT instead of HBW because they didn't get a spot in the HBW lottery. You probably have a better chance of getting hit by a Metro bus than getting your kid a spot at HBW, especially coming from the North Arlington schools. If you have a kid who really needs a smaller high school -- and you didn't get a spot at HBW -- then Arlington Tech is your next best bet. Otherwise, you are going to a 2,000 student high school. The college admits out of AT seem comparable to HBW, so it seems the school must be equally rigorous. The building is super ugly though, although going to be renovated soon. [/quote]

And yet my DD got into HB in 9th off the wait list because a kid ahead of her got into both HB and AT and chose to go to Arlington Tech. So what do you know. [/quote]
