But no to Flint Hill!


I have seen the student body at a few football and basketball games. Kids were rude, yelling and swearing. No administration there to deal with it. Even had onetheir kids throw a bottle at an opposing payer during a basketball game. Got escorted out by security.

It doesn’t represent all of the kids there, but when we play against other schools like Landon, GDS, Maret, Bullis, we see nothing like the horrible Flint Hill behavior of their student bodies that show up at the games.

I have two kids at Flint Hill and we go to a lot of basketball games. Never saw any bad sportsmanship by the FH players or any bad behavior by the fans.

Idk what pp is talking about. Maybe they are talking about the school in Flint, Michigan because FH in Oakton is phenomenal. Great academics and good kids who get along well with each other.

I don't know about that. My DC applied to and was accepted to both. We accepted FH but then reneged, losing our deposit. DC is in public now and we are happy that we opted not to go the private route due to some issues we found observing family and community there. It wasn't for us. DC is doing great in public. I don't see any college acceptance issues, as the kids in our area have done quite well.

To each his/her own.
