I have had a memorable experience at Oakton High School. Although my freshman year was cut short due to COVID-19, it was still a year to remember. I cannot wait to go back and build more meaningful relationships with the amazing teachers and students! I would not want to spend the next three years anywhere else. It has been going by so fast and I have not had the time to step back and enjoy it. I already know saying goodbye will be the hardest thing to do. I cannot stop thinking about how much closer that day gets with every minute that passes. But I will try to make the best out of my remaining years at this amazing school. Roll Cougz!
Best high school I have ever been too! Oakton allowed to me to reach my full potential and challenged me in all ways possible! Allowed me to be a better global citizen, critical thinker, and much more! Such an amazing environment and all the teachers are fully engaged and passionate. It is a place where everyone can find a true home no matter what! Kids are friendly and so are staff as they do everything they can to help you grow and prosper! This school is where I found myself! I found not only my best work ethic but how to be the best citizen I can be and give back to others and my community! Sports are great and they really help you feel like a family and the coaches of all teams are truly people you can talk to for the rest of your life! I loved my time here because not only am I a well rounded and overall better student, I am a better person ethically and my character has finally blossomed after so long! I now attend James Maddison University as a freshmen and I owe it to oakton
I think Oakton High School has wonderful teachers and resources, and for the most part staff care about the well-being of students. However, the environment can be quite toxic, especially surrounding college admissions. The majority of students at Oakton are fortunate to have access to standardized test prep classes, tutors, technology, and more, and many of them are pressured by parents and peers to try and get into top colleges. I think it would significantly help students to cap the number of AP classes they can take, so that students aren't overwhelming themselves to look good for competitive universities. It would also improve overall school culture, as students would have more time and freedom to pursue school activities.
