[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids did private k-8. They are at Herndon High now and doing just fine. Not a lot of competition for spots on sports teams. They were able to try new ones. School is renovated and looks amazing. Cannot complain about teachers. They have been resonable. Must point out, my kids do all honors and many APs when possible (some 5s on AP exams). Oldest attending a top 20 university. They made a lot of friends, attend football / basketball games.  They have friends that are not tippy-top students who are at CNU, JMU, GMU. Yes, there are many low income students and also wealthy kids. Good mix.  It has been good exposure to the real world for my kiddos. Now, if they would only get their laundry done![/quote]

This was the experience of my nephews and nieces at Herndon. UVa Engineering , Carnegie Mellon (two) and Cornell.  Herndon all did fine by them. My kids were zoned for Oakton and went to TJ.  They would have done just as well at the base school, although Oakton's sports teams are harder to make.school is what you make it in FCPS.[/quote]
