[quote=Anonymous]With all it’s diversity, Herndon is quite segregated. Of course there is some mixing, but from what I have observed, and what my kids share, these are some groups:
1. Highly academic STEM kids: mostly Asian, some White, very few Blacks and Hispanics
2. Athletes: mostly white, mixed academic levels
3. Band kids: very mixed group. They seem to have fun together. Mixed academic levels
4. Drama kids: Mostly white, other groups mixed in
5. Hispanic group: Many still have a tough time integrating with other groups. Forced to leave school early to work/take care of siblings. Some have language barrier. Lower participattion in clubs or sports. 
*AP students are sprinkled in all groups, mostly White and Asian. 
My kids are not White, but play sports and have not had issues making friends.

One main complaint is the vaping in the bathrooms.

One plus: there seems to be more than enough parking for all.

Another plus: school is located in a neighborhood. Students can also walk to Downtown Herndon to get ice cream, pizza. [/quote]
