yes the day of elections right on school grounds in broad daylight with a gun!


at nearly 6pm when there was no school. Some fear mongering.


There was an armed robbery with a gun at 5:39 pm on a weekday on the back field of HB. If you don't know HB, the small back field is right next to the school. School was not in session due to voting, but voting was taking place inside the building.

What are you talking about calling this fear mongering? That's trolling. These are the exact details as reported by police. I think it's reasonable for me -- as a parent of an HB student -- to be concerned.


I'm an HB parent too. An urban thing happened in an urban area when the only kids around live there. That's what's important. Those kids, not necessarily ours. If you don't like it, don't let yours leave campus during the day or go back to your neighborhood school. You are fear mongering. I am not trolling. I was offering facts. You didn't start with the fact of time or that school wasn't in session that day.


What are you talking about? I posted an accurate report and linked to the Arl Now article that clearly stated the time of day and the date. All you had to do was click the link to see the details. Facts and concern are not fear mongering. You seem to be oddly dismissive of this. An armed robbery on your kid’s school grounds is really of no concern to you at all? And please explain how does it help to block my kid from leaving campus when the robbery took place on campus?


As an APS parent looking at high schools I would honestly be more concerned about the number of W-L kids involved in DUIs than one robbery taking place on the H-B campus in the eight years it has been in Rosslyn

Well you're pretty clueless then. The two DUI victims were W-L former or current students. But the kids who killed them were not from W-L. In fact, the drunk driver in the first article you cite was a recent HB grad and the drunk driver in your second article was from McLean. Get a clue please before you cite things about which you clearly have no idea as some sort of jab against WL

HUB stop at W&L Picks up about 8:30 and gets to school on time. Key school hub stop picks up at 8:20 and gets to school on time. That's all I know.


Does anyone know whether the gates at the track on W&L on the Quincy side are open so kids can walk through the school to the Stafford side? Or is everyone expected to walk around W&L?


There's an entrance to the school on the Quincy side, you don't have to walk through the track/football stadium. It's near the annex.


Students do walk across the campus from the Stafford St side to the Quincy Street side. There are also multiple exists/entrances on the Quincy Street side. No need to walk around the entire school campus.

What’s your point? The W-L kids were not at fault and one was innocently driving home. The McLean teenager’s punishment was minimal. I’m sure you know the actual story but you leave out the context.


Do you know the definition of irony? Or recognize it when you see it?


A lot of people go here for actual information and are new parents.
