[edit] Current Status
South County is designated to serve grades 7-12, similar to its sister school Hayfield from which many of its students were drawn. In order to prevent disruption in students' senior years, 2005-06 seniors were allowed to remain at Hayfield to finish their secondary education and maintain continuity during the college application process. South County will remain a secondary school until a new middle school is built to take away its 7th and 8th graders, at which point it will become a regular high school.
South County's Principal, Dale Rumberger, recently won the best principal's award and was noted in the Washington Post.[citation needed]
[edit] Academic Programs
SCSS has the following FCPS Programs:
- Advanced Placement Diploma (AP)
- Career and Transition Services
- English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL)
