I also attended a lot of field trips, getting to know the culture and area I live in. I am aware that there are two campuses in. the United States, and thoroughly enjoyed my time on the Arlington campus. Its proximity to Washington DC and the level of teachers was pretty amazing, especially Dr. Gertz and Mr. Draim. Also, Mr. Elgut and Mr. Herring helped me out a lot with the college application process. As an international student, living just outside the U.S. capital was very important. It was very easy to get around and the public transportation worked very well. I already gained acceptance to one of my top colleges for next year, but am still waiting others, with hope.

I can speak from experience. When I started my high-school search in seventh grade, I valued current students' and families opinions, in which is where I choose to start my review. Often a question I receive when being asked about Flint Hill is, "What makes Flint Hill special?" I could choose to talk about just how great the arts programs are, or how much I enjoy the athletics department, but I always choose to emphasize the Flint Hill community. As I entered Flint Hill in ninth grade, within just a few days, I realized how much the community was valued. This school adopts an environment where everyone can truly express themselves and are supported to maximize their full potential. Friends, peers, faculty and staff, and even parents are what have my experience so far here, and I want to do the same for others. Go Huskies!...
