Vale Rd, Oakton, VA 22124

The teachers here are pretty good, especially the tenured ones. Unfortunately, the school's principal and assistant Principals keeps pushing good teachers out and bringing in underqualified ones. The number of good teachers that have left the past few years is startling. The community here is friendly and engaged. Overall, I give the teaching staff a 4/5, the community a 5/5, and the Principal and APs a 1/5.The Principal and Assistant Principals do not engage with the community at all, and are barely present at school events like concerts, plays, and programs. The place is still in ok shape due to great students, great parents, and pretty good teachers. However, the missing ingredient to a great environment is a School Administration that is friendly, engaged, and cares about learning and children. Sometimes there is bullying and the administration seems to ignore it or wipe it under the rug out of self-preservation. It often seems like they don't care about the students, the community, or even the teachers. Oakton, Va is a wonderful place and it's too bad that the School Administration seems to have it out for this community.
