It was great to go to high school surounded by like-minded individuals, motivated to grow each and every day. Also the location of the school is very important -- to be in proximity to some of the greatest colleges and universities in the world is inspiring. Additionally, the campus/ drive into school is always stunning.

The best part of Arlington Catholic is the community that the school provides. It is a smaller school which for my daughter was a plus. She got a lot of one on one attention from the teachers. We have really loved every teacher she has had there in the past 4 years. I found that the rules and policies of the school were very fair. The students are allowed to express themselves but within reason and are held accountable when they break the rules. The school gives their students a feeling of safety to allow them to be themselves but also to understand what the real world is like and that sometimes they have to abide by certain rules. I would highly recommend this school to anyone looking for a smaller school.

All anyone at this school cares about is sports, teachers do not go out of there way to help students at all. When Teachers have great athletes in there class treat them very differently they are given less work and higher grades. If you are lucky enough to be the star of a team you will be the most...
