School let out Early 3 hours

[rootbear75]

April 16 - 8:54 a.m. - All Fairfax County Public Schools will close three hours early today in order to ensure the safety of our students who have classes in trailers and modular buildings at many schools.

If it weren't for overcrowding, we wouldnt have trailers/mods.

If we didnt have trailers, we would not have gotten out early.

You want overcrowding? Try going to the 2nd (now 3rd) largest High School on the West Coast, and having it still overcrowded.

 

Built for 2500 students and faculty. When I graduated, was 3300 students and faculty, and for my bros it is 3500. 1100 students in my graduating class alone. Although only like 700 of us made it. Expected when the avg class size is 40-45, and 30 felt like a super small class.

[Cancer+]

Wow, we had 200 people in our graduate class. 30 was HUGE for us and like 10-15 was super small.

In Red is the High School. In Blue is your normal, semi large, Albertsons, just to give perspective.

 

Most of the Main building is 3-4 stories, depending where you are. Towards the South in the Picture is only 2. But yeah, all the old ASSS won't vote yes to p!@#$%^&* a levy so we can build a 2nd high school (just as big).

all the "old ASSS" dont give a !@#$%^&* about future generations.

all their kids already graduated

 

my school is 3 stories. it was built on a middle school lot.

Red = My school (bottom)

Blue = decent sized Super Giant grocery store (top)

the park right above is not owned by the school. it is a state park which we use for practices, and to the right is an independently owned golf course, which we also use too

 

EDIT: and polix, what is that part of the school across the street?

Armory, More Parking, few other things.

[rootbear75]

armory?

why is there an armory on your high school?

[PoLiX]

NJROTC - Naval Junior Recruit ... Training Course... or something like that.

 

2 naval bases and 2 sub bases on the peninsula, so yeah. It helps getting into the Army, Navy, Air Force, etc. With 2 air force, and 1 army base just within 35miles of here, what a lot of people choose to do, or work at.

LOL, i go to an FCPS High School (Herndon High), everyone screamed when they made the announcement in my class, was awesome. I thought it was because of the shootings too, not because of high winds? Edited April 22, 2007 by azuma
