My son had a baseball game at their wonderful field…read more I have attended both football and baseball games here and the stadium facilities are top notch. The track is six lanes and built for speed. The concessions and restrooms are fancy by most high school standards. I cannot attest to the school itself, but the students and staff treated the visiting team with respect. Four stars for the sports facilities.

The guys are the most annoying people I've ever encountered. Half the teachers don't even teach. They will take away the only thing you like about the school and try to cover it up by letting you wear white shoes. None of the bathroom doors lock. If you are an introvert you're out of luck. The people your mother asked if they enjoyed their experience either lied or went to a different Bishop O'Connell high school. The school is not as good as it seems.

These empanadas routinely run out before the game ends because they are THAT good, the volunteers working the stand are some of the friendliest parent volunteers running a concession stand. This is borne out by the fact that there are alumni who sponsor different innings even though they have long moved out of the area. Impressive in so many ways. Most high school concession stands have joyless packaged foods that are the antithesis of homemade. It is a testament to Annandale High School's athletic boosters and specifically their baseball team volunteers to have added this delightful twist to the usual high school concession stand fare.

My husband and I love the atmosphere of the school and our children have thrived--each child is encouraged to develop their own special gifts in a supportive environment that emphasizes kindness and respect to everyone. St. Ambrose nurtures the growth of the whole child, so in addition to academics, my children have also enjoyed learning chess, playing an instrument in band, having a role in the school Christmas play, and developing their track and basketball skills on the school's CYO teams. The teachers and staff are wonderful. They are always responsive and welcoming to parents and really function as a team. St. Ambrose is a very special place.

Review for basketball gym only…read more The infamous DeMatha Catholic High School has been host for the WCAC girl's basketball quarterfinals for years but this year was a bit different. DeMatha's beloved, celebrated coach of the boys program for decades passed away in January. At the front entrance was signage that in Coach Wootten's honor, they were collecting used (but not abused) basketball shoes for the under privileged. Such an awesome gesture for an extraordinary coach/man. I've been to many basketball games in this gym and have enjoyed them all. They've always had the boosters and the DeMatha families working the front desk, collecting money and at the concession stand. Everyone is super friendly, even when folks have been eager to bypass the long lines and crowds. When packed, the atmosphere is electric and usually multiple college recruiters can be seen in attendance. That's what high school basketball is all about, especially at DeMatha where Coach Wootten built his legacy.

Stopped here for a basketball showcase recently for work. I grew up watching this school in the…read moreACIT, so traveling there to watch games was a totally different animal. Traveling with the team I will say I lucked out in a way bc I am not sure where anyone parks other than illegally in the street coming in and out of the complex when it is busy. So that could be an issue for patrons who travel and need a place to park. However, this will be a very big issue to find a place to park. I will say that the inside of this arena is that of a bigger division 2 arena however - their snack bar and seating was all filled and the inside and entrances were well lit by natural light and windows. The only thing that maybe either they are keeping original or haven't gotten to is the floor. It is the original heavily polyurethane yellow-tinted floor paint. Charming to me but kind of looks out of place with the rest of the place. Will be back

Could hear all the commotion from my house. Decided to check it out since I wasn't working today…read more It was the first time I had ever set foot on the school grounds. The people were cheerful despite the look of the weather. Everyone that took part in the kids race looked happy and excited. Although I did not take part in the race this time, I am thinking about going it next year. The overall feeling of doing something heathly and fun, are two things not to ignore.

All this, provided in a uniquely warm, family-like atmosphere that is rare in public high schools. As one of the smallest high schools in Fairfax County, the teacher-student ratio is excellent. Also, the international atmosphere of the school also stands out, providing an accurate reflection of Northern VA. He's been happy there. And with the emergence of the Mosaic district close-by, Falls Church high school is poised for an even greater future.

I have never been in this school and I wanted to see what this event was all about. The first thing I see upon entering is a business called Feeling Foxy Confections. The lady and I were both wearing fox shirts and we hit it off well. Looking around I saw some items but did not want to buy her product just yet. I told her I would be back later on. The next real station that caught my eye is a self publisher by the name of C.J Brightley. I am looking at a book called The Wraith and The Rose. This might be the first book I read of hers...okay, I just went back to the school and bought her book for twenty six dollars after tax. I learned that C.J Brightly has a sequel to this book coming out soon. She signed my book twice. I a very much inspired to get my books published. The next person I met is another author and book designer. He goes by the name Larry Issa. He writes children's books and has a new book that just came out. I admire what these two authors have done. The rest of the school look fine, but none of the other stations got my attention like the three table stations I saw. Stopping by W.T Woodson High School was worth it today.

Great craft fair, I'll recommend you can find great handmade items for a reasonable price.read more

This review is focused on its concession stand. While there on a weeknight for a baseball game, the concession stand was open. There are the usual pizzas, hot dogs, and hot chocolate as typical of high school concession stands, but what caught my eye was "homemade ice cream." At a high school concession stand??? Turns out, it is from Lazy Mike's Deli from across the street. Still, this is different than the usual concession stand. The mango sorbet was hard as a rock, but after softening it a bit in my hands in the warm weather, it was perfect for a warm spring baseball night. Rarely do high school concession stands bring pleasant surprises. This was a nice treat!
