[quote=Anonymous]DC graduated from OHS two years ago. DC felt neutral about the school--basically thought it was way too big (over 700 kids in graduating class) to meaningfully connect with teachers or other students. Online learning and the 4-year renovation made it a challenging experience, but those are no longer issues. Dc did well enough to get into UVA (first choice), but I had to arrange for a tutor for AP Physics (teacher was new to the subject and not equipped to teach the class). That could happen at any school. One highlight of DC's experience was the AP Capstone classes, which are only offered in a few high schools in Fairfax Co. The Capstone classes really helped prepare DC for writing college-level papers. [/quote]
